Sherborne Literary Festival 2012 .. Homage will be paid at the Sherborne Literary Festival to the man who, unbeknown to many, wrote the Hitchhiker series a short distance down the road in the village of Stalbridge.
Sitting at a desk in his mother's house, he penned the book which would make him a household name and give rise to comic characters including Arthur Dent.
