Arrow to reissue Adams
01.10.08 Katie Allen
Arrow is to reissue Hitch-Hiker’s Guide author Douglas Adams’ Last Chance to See, following this autumn’s BBC2 series “Last Chance to See: The Return”.The imprint acquired UK and Commonwealth rights in the book from agent Ed Victor. A paperback edition will be published in June 2009, featuring a new introduction from Richard Dawkins.
The title, first published by Heinemann in 1990, was written by Adams and zoologist Mark Carwadine as a companion to the 1980s radio series where they went on the trail of endangered species.
Stephen Fry and Carwadine are to present the BBC2 series, which follows up on the species 20 years on and will feature audio recordings of Adams’ voice. HarperCollins are publishing the tie-in.
