Author and narrator Stephen Fry's fourth and final installment of his Greek Myths series showcases, yet again, his virtuoso storytelling skills. His literary retelling of Homer's tale of Odysseus's arduous journey home from the Trojan War stays true to themes of heroism, home, and the human condition while infusing the narrative with a modern wit and accessibility. There's vivid detail and emotional depth in Fry's dramatic use of varied voices to portray the gods, monsters, and mortals whom Odysseus meets on his voyage. Ideal for history and mythology lovers, Fry's insightful commentary and masterful performance are equally perfect for listeners who are looking for an engaging and intelligent introduction to Homer's epic.
