Interpretation Conducive To Books The Fry Chronicles (Memoir #2)

This was a quick read as I love Stephen Fry and have been curious about his career. His writing is lyrical, captivating and a linguistic joy to read, he has a seemingly effortless ability to conjure whirling syntax and employ endless alliterations and double rhyme scheme. The downfalls of this work were an inexcusable amount of repetition, self deprecation to the point of farce and mindless name dropping which did tend to disconnect the reader. It also would have served well to be much shorter. And yet, I loved his masterful use of language, his honest insights into his own struggles and misgivings and the British mischievousness and turn of phrase many have come to love him for. I liked this book - I just wanted to like it much more.

Write-Up Containing Books The Fry Chronicles (Memoir #2)

If Stephen Fry were to sell copy he had written for toilet paper, then I would probably buy it.

A quote that's been regurgitated again and again this year is the most arrogant and smug thing I've read this year year, that Stephen Fry is "A stupid persons idea of what an intelligent person looks like". I can't ever recall anyone regarding him with genius status. He's well learned and quite knowledgeable. Someone with a thirst for knowledge and a great memory. Yes, of course that doesn't equate to intelligence, but why be so arrogant about it? There's a lot of Fry Haters out there. I guess

I rate this book 666 stars!This book saved my life. It brought me out of a state of deep despair and anger.I won't quote anything because there are too many choice titbits to share and you deserve the pleasure of discovering them for yourself.The Gideons should reprint this and place copies in all hotel rooms and twice-a-year disctribute free copies on campuses throughout the world.

Let's just say that if I weren't happily married, and if Stephen Fry weren't happily gay, I'm pretty sure we'd be soulmates.

This is a fascinating peak behind the curtains type of tale that really sucks you in and tale you along for the ride. Absolutely excellent book.

STEPHEN Fry is that person I manage to always see on TV or making an appearance in a movie. I never quite knew what it was about him that made him so likeable but there was definitely something there. I was on holiday with my family and had 'absolutely nothing' to read. A trip to the bookstore later and The Fry Chronicles was mine.I didnt realise until well after finishing the book that there was one before it called Moab is my Washpot. Fortunately for me (and for any reader) this books stands

People who are professionally funny often have very serious histories, and Stephen Fry is no exception. I hope I don't have to rehearse in too much detail here all of the funny business with which Fry has been associatedBlackadder, The Young Ones and A Bit of Fry and Laurie being three well-known titles that show up in these particular pages.And more, of coursealthough most of Fry's better-known work actually comes after the mere slice through the 1980s that this volume covers, during his years
