"Oh, What a Lovely Century" is a compelling memoir narrated by acclaimed voice actors that chronicles the adventures of Roderic Fenwick Owen, a travel writer who lived through and experienced key moments of the 20th century. From encounters with historic figures to moments of personal discovery and love, his story offers a lyrical and witty reflection on a rapidly changing world. The memoir delves into his extraordinary life, including his experiences during World War II, his romantic pursuits, and his navigation of a time when being open about sexuality was dangerous. It is both an intimate personal account and a vivid portrait of a bygone era.
