It’s too bad this wasn’t Themeless 42, as you’ll understand once you’ve solved the puzzle. I called this a themeless even though the one of the two seeds (1 Down/8 Down, with 17 Across the second) and a few other entries relate to a hysterically funny, warm-hearted Douglas Adams series that I would make compulsory reading if I were 1 Down/8 Down. Constructor’s prerogative – if it’s 72 words or fewer I get to call it a themeless, especially if the related answers aren’t placed symmetrically. (There’s also a bit of a baseball mini-theme.)
Note: please excuse the poor wording of the clue for 40 Across. The answer is plural.
