ISBN:  9781452178912 9780718188726 (hc.) Description:  ix, 416 pages, 16 unnumbered pages of plates : colour illustrations, maps, genealogical tables ; 24 cm. Notes:  Subtitle from cover. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references (pages 406-409). Summary:  "The Greek myths are the greatest stories ever told, passed down through millennia and inspiring writers and artists as varied as Shakespeare, Michelangelo, James Joyce and Walt Disney. They are embedded deeply in the traditions, tales and cultural DNA of the West. In Stephen Fry's hands the stories of the titans and gods become a brilliantly entertaining account of ribaldry and revelry, warfare and worship, debauchery, love affairs and life lessons, slayings and suicides, triumphs and tragedies. You'll fall in love with Zeus, marvel at the birth of Athena, wince at Cronus and Gaia's revenge on Ouranos, weep with King Midas and hunt with the beautiful and ferocious Artemis. Thoroughly spellbinding, informative and moving, Stephen Fry perfectly captures these stories for the modern age - in all their rich and deeply human relevance."--Provided by publisher. "Stephen Fry is an English comedian, actor, writer, presenter, and activist. He is perhaps best known as half of the comic double act Fry and Laurie, with collaborator Hugh Laurie with whom he co-wrote and co-starred in A Bit of Fry & Laurie and also took the role of Jeeves (with Laurie playing Wooster) in Jeeves and Wooster. He has written four novels and three volumes of autobiography, Moab Is My Washpot, The Fry Chronicles, and More Fool Me. He also appears frequently on BBC Radio 4"--From wikipedia.org website.
