The Ode Less Travelled: Unlocking the Poet Within
Stephen Fry

Gotham, 2006

The nuts and bolts of poetry
Stephen Fry's "Ode Less Travelled" is a very good companion for all who wish to learn about poetry. It is, in a sense, just like any textbook you've seen in school. There are presentations of terms, rules and traditions and exercises for you to do, to show that you've ...
  
  











  



  
A Bear Called Paddington
Michael Bond

HarperChildrensAudio, 2005

Fantastic!
A classic! I loved Paddington as a child and I'm thrilled to have this in our CD collection. (I'd even listen without the kids!). Stephen Fry reads the stories very well.
  
  











  



  
Making History
Stephen Fry

Soho Press, 2003

Non-Fiction Person Loved This Novel!
I don't ususally read non-fiction, and have never been into the Alternate History craze. I bought this as a Stephen Fry fan, and perhaps a bit because I was a history major in college. From page one, I could not put it down. The way Fry writes, discussing how one ...
  
  











  



  
Moab Is My Washpot
Stephen Fry

Soho Press, 2003

Like Wodehouse? You'll Like This.
Fry is a Wodehouse-worshipper, and his elegant prose shows it. This discursive, digressive, sometimes profane and endlessly entertaining bio covers Fry's youth (with much reminiscing about Public School days in the manner of Wodehouse's Psmith) and the development of ...

The Liar
Stephen Fry

Soho Press, 2003

The funniest book I have read in years
I am a johnny-come-lately to this book which has been out for some time. But to call this witty, is like calling the ocean damp. There are lines in here that are astoundingly funny. I cannot remember the last time that I laughed out loud while reading a book, and I did ...
  
  











  



  
Revenge: A Novel
Stephen Fry

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2003

Exceptional!!
The comedic Stephen Fry's writing in "Revenge" is exceptional! I must admit when I picked up the book, I was unsure of how it was going to be, seeing as Fry is known for his comedy and here he is writing a serious novel. By far, one of the best books I have ever read! ...
  
  











  



  
The Hippopotamus
Stephen Fry

Soho Press, 2003

THEOREM
This novel, published in 1994, has reminded the critics of certain other writers. I can myself see a resemblance to the narrator of Kingsley Amis's The Green Man in this story told by an ageing, bibulous, randy has-been putting up a show of curmudgeonliness much as ...
  
  











  



  
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Douglas Adams

Random House Audio, 2005

I love listening to this audiobook in my car .
It is fitting that this audio adaptation of Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was voiced by actor Stephen Fry. Fry was a close friend of the late Mr. Adams, and he also narrates the new H2G2 movie as the voice of the Book. Fry does a great job of ...
  
  











  



  
Pooh Invents a New Game and Other Stories (Winnie the Pooh)
A. A. Milne

Hodder Audio, 2007

Say "Ho" for the wonderful Pooh!
This amazing dramatization of the Pooh books is performed by a marvelously talented group of British entertainers who truly bring the Pooh characters gently and lovingly to life. As for this tape, I finally got this figured out. This is part of a four-tape program that ...
  
  











  



  
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
J.K. Rowling

BBC Audiobooks, 2002

A truly magical tale!
When I was about ten years old, I picked up a copy of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone reluctantly: everyone had told me to read it. I hated reading. Never could stand it. No matter what anyone said there was no such thing as a good book. It was always going to ...
  
  











  



  
Pooh Goes Visiting and Other Stories
A. A. Milne

Hodder Audio, 2007

Bite-size book perfect for littler kids!
This little book is an exact reproduction of Chapter 2 in the original book, Winnie-the-Pooh by A.A. Milne, with illustrations by Shephard. All the charm of the original, in a perfect size for reading to littler kids, who can feel satisfied at having been read "the ...
  
  











  



  
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2)
J.K. Rowling

Cover-to-Cover, 2000

Excellent
Well if you're looking at this product you're probably like me, busy and not the biggest fan of sitting down to read. I've always been a big fan of stories but I could just never find the time to read because of work and when I did I am admittedly an abysmally slow ...
  
  











  



  
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
J.K. Rowling

BBC Audiobooks, 2003

My second favorite of the series
The largest and second best, in my opinon, of the series is when the good side fights back. Voldemort is slaughtering "for fun" and The Order of the Phoenix won't stand for it. The Order of he Phoenix is basically the equivelent of the Justice League. The ending is a ...
  
  











  



  
The Growing Plant Cell Wall
Stephen C. Fry

The Blackburn Press, 2001

First published in 1988 and now known as a classic. In this book Stephen Fry presents, in considerable practical detail, a wealth of information on methods for the preparation and analysis of plant cell walls and their constituents. The topics include: the isolation and purification of structural constituents, enzymes and metabolites; ...
