Troy: Our Greatest Story Retold (Stephen Fry’s Greek Myths Book 3) książka papierowa

STEP INTO THE LEGEND OF TROY WITH STEPHEN FRY, THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MYTHOS `INIMITABLE` - OBSERVER `A DELIGHT` - DAILY TELEGRAPH `Troy. The most marvellous kingdom in all the world . . .` Paris the Trojan has kidnapped Helen, Greek queen and most beautiful woman of the ancient world. A thousand ships give chase and lay siege to Troy. Yet the city stands resolutely against Greek might. Only invulnerable Achilles and wily Odysseus may lead them to victory - but the passions of mortals merely amuse the Gods and blood is easily spilled on distant shores . . . `An inimitable retelling. Rich, artfully humorous, breathes life and contemporary relevance into these ancient tales` - Observer `A fun romp through the world`s greatest story. Fry`s knowledge of the world - ancient and modern - bursts through` - Daily Telegraph `Hugely successful, graceful` The Times `Fluent, crisp, nuanced, begins with a bang` - The Times Literary Supplement
