My Family and Other Animals:
Escaping the ills of the British climate, the Durrell family - acne-ridden Margo, gun-toting Leslie, bookworm Lawrence and budding naturalist Gerry, along with their long-suffering mother and Roger the dog - take off for the island of Corfu.
But the Durrells find that, reluctantly, they must share their various villas with a menagerie of local fauna - among them scorpions, geckos, toads, bats and butterflies.
The Corfu Trilogy :
For Gerald, the budding zoologist, Corfu was a natural paradise, teeming with strange birds and beasts that he could collect, watch and care for. But life was not without its problems his family often objected to his animalcollecting activities, especially when the beasts wound up in the villa or even worse the fridge. With hilarious yet endearing portraits of his family and their many unusual hangerson, The Corfu Trilogy also captures the beginnings of the authors lifelong love of animals. Recounted with immense humour and charm, this wonderful account of Corfus natural history reveals a rare, magical childhood. For the passionate zoologist, Corfu was a natural paradise, teeming with strange birds and beasts that he could collect, watch and care for.
