Troy
Review of “Troy” by Stephen Fry (Michael Joseph, 2020); audiobook read by Stephen Fry (Penguin, 2020)
Stephen Fry brings alive the mythological epic that is the siege of Troy. More than that, he makes his telling accessible, managing—quite heroically—to sort out the genealogies, timelines, themes, actions, characters and motivations without ever getting bogged down in detail.
