John Martz: Babelfisch


John Martz hat es schon wieder getan und beim Picture Book Report (15 Illustratoren visualisieren Szenen aus ihren Lieblingsbüchern und schreiben was dazu) eine wunderbare Illu zu "The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy" gepostet:
"Like Star Trek’s universal translator, the Babel fish is a simple plot device used to avoid the obvious obstacle of an interstellar language barrier. But like all good science fiction, the story and the characters here exist as vehicles for larger ideas. And with the Babel fish Douglas Adams, a self-described radical atheist, dismisses both Intelligent Design and the circular logic of religious extremism in one fell swoop..." The Galaxy’s a fun place. You’ll need to have this fish in your ear.
