Blog Prompt: Comment on the choices made by the characters or people in the book. What advice would you give them?----------------------------
Well, Arthur Dent is a man whom has been through much in his travels. However, the one thing he wishes out of all the countless adventures and trials he has been through is to return to normalcy.
In the beginning of the book, he is introduced in a state of calmness that quickly turns into panic as he discovers he is stranded on Earth. This would normally be a great thing, if it were not for the fact that it is earth during the pre-historic era. Everything he once knew is thrown out the window and he begins to go insane while in the early earth age. However, before he goes full insane, he is visited and saved by his friend Ford Prefect whom is in the form of a couch. He pulls him into a space-time continuum portal which than leaves off into the next chapter.
My advice to Arthur Dent would be slow down and smell the roses a bit. Relax and take it easy instead of panicking. However, it is quite normal to be in that state of mind taking into account the pre-historic setting of which he was stuck.
