Zarniwoop Vann Harl - Old Woman in The Cave

Played by Miriam Margolyes in fit the twenty-fourth of the radio series, the smelly Old Woman in the Cave in the village of oracles on Hawalius provides Arthur Dent with bad olfactory stimulation and a photocopied story of her life, suggesting he live his life the opposite way so he won't end up living in a rancid cave. This occurs in the novel Mostly Harmless.

The original, real "smelly goat" event happened during the Last Chance to See radio series, found on the Douglas Adams at the BBC CD as a "Pick of the Week".

Famous quotes containing the words woman and/or cave:

    The woman is the home. That’s where she used to be, and that’s where she still is. You might ask me, What if a man tries to be part of the home—will the woman let him? I answer yes. Because then he becomes one of the children.
    Marguerite Duras (b. 1914)

    In such an armor he may rise and raid
    The dark cave after midnight, unafraid....
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
