Historia
Stephen Fry travels into the most remarkable place we know - our brain. The organ of knowledge and the one we know least about. Over 12 episodes Stephen explores just how much we’ve learned about this mysterious structure in recent years and tries to answer some of the most difficult questions that remain. To do this, we relay the discoveries and stories of neuroscientists, psychologists, anthropologists and even philosophers, to add illumination and perspective as we travel. Each episode will be full of brainy stories: some shocking, some thrilling, some scarcely believable.

Fascinating
Revisado: 05-03-22
Stephen's wonderful deep voice, careful pronunciation, & keen intelligence are at top form here. He draws you in to his story (which is our story) & keeps you fascinated and hanging on every word.
I do hope that I can find a bibliography of the books he mentions.

Big fan of Stephen Fry. Love his voice. His writing is clear, he often adds "asides" to give more background on the text.
The penultimate story teller telling an ancient story, what could be better ?!

Historia
Before she went to join Sam and Mogget downstairs, Lirael paused for a moment to look at herself in the tall silver mirror that hung on the wall of her room. The image that faced her bore little resemblance to the Second Assistant Librarian of the Clayr. She saw a warlike and grim young woman, dark hair bound back with a silver cord rather than hanging free to disguise her face. She no longer wore her librarian's waistcoat, and she had a long Nehima at her side rather than a library-issue dagger.

Historia
Kitty Marion was sent across the country by the Pankhurst family to carry out a nationwide campaign of bombings and arson attacks, as women fought for the vote using any means necessary. But in the aftermath of World War One, the dangerous and revolutionary actions of Kitty and other militant suffragettes were quickly hushed up and disowned by the previously proud movement, and the women who carried out these attacks were erased from our history. Now, for the first time, their untold story will be brought back to life.

A fascinating fuedal history of the beginning of the women's movement & the subsequent call for birth control.
Trigger warning, they started out "lady like", but due to being ignored, vilified & treated horribly, they moved to guerilla tactics. Something that was later expunged from the movements history.

Revisado: 04-12-21
YoYo Ma's voice is soothing, intelligent & gently probing. His music is passionate, penetrating & lovely.
Though this is not an in depth book, it does a pretty decent job of introducing you to him & his history and some of the directions his life has gone. And his attempts to understand & connect the strands into a seemless whole.
He is almost like that Big Brother you wish you had. He is in love with humanity in a very grounded way.
I didn't want it to end.

Here are the thrills, grandeur, and unabashed fun of the Greek myths, stylishly retold by Stephen Fry. The legendary writer, actor, and comedian breathes life into ancient tales, from Pandora's box to Prometheus's fire, and transforms the adventures of Zeus and the Olympians into emotionally resonant and deeply funny stories, without losing any of their original wonder. Learned notes from the author offer rich cultural context. This volume is a doorway into a captivating world.

A bit dry
Revisado: 02-23-21
some of the stories were quite riveting, some, not so much. The best stories were the "first person" ones.
As life gets more complex, I think more and more we will need checklists.

Historia
Be it as Nicky Hutchinson in Our Friends In The North, Maurice in The A Word, or his reinvention of Doctor Who, one man, in life and death, has accompanied Christopher Eccleston every step of the way – his father Ronnie. In I Love The Bones Of You, Eccleston unveils a vivid portrait of a relationship that has shaped his entire career trajectory, mirroring and defining his own highs and lows, from stage and screen triumph to breakdown, anorexia, self-doubt, and a deep belief in the basic principles of access and equality denied to generations.
