What to expect

Critics Review

  • I do more than invite you to read Stephen Fry. I urge you to. Fry is by turns observer, humourist, reviewer, philosopher, parodist, autobiographer, academic, scourge, clown and, as often as not, an antic amalgam of all these and more, and his variant style conforms flawlessly with each selected role.

  • Huge, crammed, wise, hilarious and utterly captivating

    Literary Review
  • A joyous collaboration of winging humour and sarcasm

    Mail on Sunday
  • Naughty but terribly nice

    Sunday Times
  • Appallingly funny

    Daily Telegraph
