Kenneth Branagh reads a selection from Samuel Pepys' classic diaries, describing with humour and detail life in 17th century London.
Pepys' Diary is one of the most celebrated journals of all time. Such is the wit and style of Pepys' writing that listeners to this selection from the early years of the diary will gain not only a unique view of seventeenth century London life but also a vivid picture of Pepys the man as he strives to establish himself in his career and in society.
