The story of Troy speaks to all of us – the kidnapping of Helen, a queen celebrated for her beauty, sees the Greeks launch a thousand ships against the city of Troy, to which they will lay siege for ten whole years. It is a terrible war with casualties on all sides as well as strained relations between allies, whose consequences become tragedies. In Troy you will find heroism and hatred, love and loss, revenge and regret, desire and despair. It is these human passions, written bloodily in the sands of a distant shore, that still speak to us today.

Troy:Our Greatest Story Retold:

Review

Praise for Stephen Fry

Fry’s lively writing certainly conveys his lifelong passion for Greek myths…It’s a rollicking good read, The Independent

Perfect for the 21st Century. Ebullient, funny, Fry retells the Greek myths with elegance, The Times

Lively, humorous and intimate, this retelling has real charm, The Guardian

A wondrous new immersion in ancient stories we only thought we knew. Brilliant, funny, erudite, inventive, surprising and enthralling — Richard North Patterson
