Cite author and title for monographs - latex

Question

for a university paper I have to write an essay. The professor has percise instructions how to cite. For monograph books, he wants the author and the title in the footnotes.
I tried to use biblatex for this, but could not manage to get it to work
My minimal reproducible example is:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\title{test}
\usepackage[style=authoryear,maxcitenames=2,maxbibnames=99, uniquename=false]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{references.bib}
\setcounter{biburlnumpenalty}{100}
\setcounter{biburlucpenalty}{100}
\setcounter{biburllcpenalty}{100}
\DefineBibliographyStrings{ngerman}{
andothers = {{et\,al\adddot}},
}
\DeclareNameAlias{sortname}{family-given}
\DeclareFieldFormat
[article,inbook,incollection,inproceedings,patent,thesis,unpublished]
{title}{#1\isdot}
\renewbibmacro{in:}{%
\ifentrytype{article}{}{\printtext{\bibstring{in}\intitlepunct}}}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section{Introduction}
This is a minimal reproducible example. \footcite{adams1995hitchhiker}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
which outputs:

Now i want to add the title of the book too (in this case The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) in the footnote
Any idea how to implement this?

Answer 1

It sounds as if the authortitle style would be closer to your requirements:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\title{test}
\usepackage[style=authortitle,maxcitenames=2,maxbibnames=99, uniquename=false]{biblatex}
\begin{filecontents*}[overwrite]{\jobname.bib}
#book{knuth,
author = {Knuth, Donald E.},
title = {The {\TeX} book},
date = 1984,
maintitle = {Computers \& Typesetting},
volume = {A},
publisher = {Addison-Wesley},
location = {Reading, Mass.},
langid = {english},
langidopts = {variant=american},
sortyear = {1984-1},
sorttitle = {Computers & Typesetting A},
indexsorttitle= {The TeXbook},
indextitle = {\protect\TeX book, The},
shorttitle = {\TeX book}
}
\end{filecontents*}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\setcounter{biburlnumpenalty}{100}
\setcounter{biburlucpenalty}{100}
\setcounter{biburllcpenalty}{100}
\DefineBibliographyStrings{ngerman}{
andothers = {{et\,al\adddot}},
}
\DeclareNameAlias{sortname}{family-given}
\DeclareFieldFormat
[article,inbook,incollection,inproceedings,patent,thesis,unpublished]
{title}{#1\isdot}
\renewbibmacro{in:}{%
\ifentrytype{article}{}{\printtext{\bibstring{in}\intitlepunct}}}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\section{Introduction}
This is a minimal reproducible example. \footcite{knuth}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
