No, I can not deny it, I can never resist Stephen Fry. So much so that, once again, I have the print copy as well as the audiobook since it is narrated by the author himself. I read them in parallel to enjoy Stephen Fry’s voice as much as the visual design of the print copy with the great artwork an Leggi tutto
