Troy : Our Greatest Story Retold
Fry, Stephen
Discover the most legendary story ever told in the SUNDAY TIMES bestseller TROY, Stephen Fry’s most epic book yet’An inimitable retelling of the siege of Troy . . .

Glittering Ilion, the city that rose and fell not once but twice . . .’_______The story of Troy speaks to all of us.
It is the kidnapping of Helen, a queen celebrated for her beauty, which sees the Greeks launch a thousand ships against that great city, to which they will lay siege for ten whole and very bloody years. It is Zeus, the king of the gods, who triggers war when he asks the Trojan prince Paris to judge the fairest goddess of them all. Aphrodite bribes Paris with the heart of Helen, wife of King Menelaus of the Greeks, and nature takes its course.
It is a terrible, brutal war with casualties on all sides. The Greeks cannot defeat the Trojans - since Achilles, the Greek’s boldest warrior, is consumed with jealousy over an ally’s choice of lover and will not fight . .
. The stage is set for the oldest and greatest story ever told, where monstrous passions meet the highest ideals and the lowest cunning. In Troy you will find heroism and hatred, 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 is a myth in which we seek the truth about ourselves, which Stephen Fry brings breathtakingly to life for our modern age. ’Fry’s knowledge of the world - ancient and modern - bursts through at the seams .
. . The reader will find themselves on a fun romp through the world’s greatest story’ DAILY TELEGRAPHPRAISE FOR MYTHOS AND HEROES:’A romp through the lives of ancient Greek gods.
