3 exclusive excerpts from Stephen Fry's audiobook 'Odyssey'

[@pinarosa1192]

Not me weeping real tears at 3:30 am cause the Stephen Fry - Odyssey combination is too much to bear for my frail heart. Bless you and your brain, sir.

I bought Mythos and Heroes on audiobook when I learned Stephen narrated them. Best decision ever.

[@michaelfrench8204]

I did the exact same thing

[@tychomagneticanomaly]

Hah sensational. Sitting on my home beach at the Baltic, a place I always yearn for when away, to have Mr. Fry explain the roots of nostalgia is pure bliss.

My favorite guide to all the beauties of the English language!

I can’t wait to receive my pre-ordered copy. This will complete my Stephen Fry Greek mythology collection along with Mythos, Heroes and Troy.

Stephen Fry is a wonderful person, a real gentleman, very intelligent

[@christophedevos3760]

The most outstanding history teacher one never had, inspiring, informative, and so on. Also very impressive - unless this is a deep fake- that he is reciting this quasi by heart. Certainly a (audio) book for the long list, thank you very much for sharing (and publishing).

Any idea when the audiobook is out? 3 days past release date of the books and no sign of it!

[@randonukperson6406]

That's me spending some moeny

[@BunderChowed]

I used to like Stephen. Until he displayed his disregard for genocide.

[@renzo6490]

For those of us not well informed, could you please elaborate?

[@Liusila]

In a Christmas tweet he reminded listeners about the terrible spike in antisemitic incidents, including the ‘venomous slurs and hateful abuse’ against Jewish people, and asked people to acknowledge the ‘real fear stalking the Jewish neighbourhoods of Britain’. This to some meant that he was taking a side in the Israel-Hamas war and that somehow his anti-hate message supported the Israel side of the war specifically. Some Twitter users took that to mean he supports killing of Palestinians. Basically, don’t worry about these clowns.

[@renzo6490]

@@Liusila thank you. I remember during the internationally unpopular U.S. war in Vietnam,American citizens, who also opposed the war, traveling in Europe sometimes wore Canadian flags on their lapels or backpacks to avoid verbal or other abuse. Not all Israelis and not all Jews support the current Netanyahu regime’s war crimes.

[@BunderChowed]

@@Liusila Speaking out against rise in hate towards jews is noble. but in failing to condemn Apartheid is unforgivable

[@BunderChowed]

@@renzo6490 Too right. Zionism is the problem here. it has been for many decades

[@starcapture3040]

Love your books, But Free Palestine.

[@Jake-bh4ph]

Will this be available right away on audible in the U.S.?
