Recenzii
The
Greek
myths
are
told
to
you
here
by
the
ever-soothing
voice
of
Stephen
Fry,
who
takes
you
from
Zeus
to
Athena
with
his
typical
humour.The
Greek
gods
of
the
past
become
relatable
as
pop
culture,
modern
literature
and
music
are
woven
throughout.
It
is
joyfully
informal
yet
full
of
the
literary
legacy
threaded
through
so
much
of
the
tapestry
of
contemporary
Greece
