This is a fair question, as it's one of the oddest (though certainly one of the best) books I've ever read. Basically, the book follows the story of Arthur Dent, an ordinary Earthman whose planet gets demolished to make way for a hyperspatial bypass. This is a particularly harsh blow, as his house has just been demolished. However, Arthur manages to escape with his friend Ford Prefect, who happens to be an alien from a small planet somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse. Together, they set out to explore the galaxy with Ford's cousin Zaphod Beeblebrox, an Earth woman named Trillian, a manically depressed robot called Marvin and two white mice (who happened to be called Frankie and Benjy, but it's not really vital to the plot). I would definitely recommend the book to anyone, even if you don't really understand it at first because that's the fun of it. So long, and thanks for all the fish!
