When the unconventional Durrell family can no longer endure the damp, gray English climate, they do what any sensible family would do: sell their house and relocate to the sunny Greek isle of Corfu. My Family and Other Animals was intended to embrace the natural history of the island but ended up as a delightful account of Durrell’s family’s experiences, from the many eccentric hangers-on to the ceaseless procession of puppies, toads, scorpions, geckoes, ladybugs, glowworms, octopuses, bats, and butterflies into their home.
Gerald "Gerry" Malcolm Durrell was born in India in 1925. His elder siblings are Lawrence Durrell, Leslie Durrell, and Margaret Durrell. His family settled on Corfu when Durrell was a boy and he spent his time studying its wildlife. He relates these experiences in the trilogy beginning with My Family and Other Animals, and continuing with Birds, Beasts and Relatives and The Garden of the Gods. In his books he writes with wry humour and great perception about both the humans and the animals he meets.
On leaving Corfu he returned to England to work on the staff of Whipsnade Park as a student keeper. His adventures there are told with characteristic energy in Beasts in My Belfry. A few years later, Durrell began organising his own animal-collecting expeditions. The first, to the Cameroons, was followed by expeditions to Paraguay, Argentina and Sierra Leone. He recounts these experiences in a number of books, including The Drunken Forest. Durrell also visited many countries while shooting various television series, including An Amateur Naturalist. In 1958 Gerald Durrell realised a lifelong dream when he set up the Jersey Zoological Park, followed a few years later by the Jersey Wildlife Preservation Trust.
Durell was married twice; Jacquie Durrell (1951-1979), Lee Durrell (1979-1995).
Gerald Durrell's style is exuberant, passionate and acutely observed. Gerald Durrell died in 1995.

评分英剧细节拍得太少了,书本正好补充下~ 像Mrs Durrell这样的妈妈真的太棒了~
评分多年前读过一个中文版,现在哪里都找不到了。很特别很动人的书。作者是个自然学家,动物园主,特别爱动物的人,从书名就看得出来。他的文笔特别幽默,因为下意识里从动物的角度看待世界,于是行文总是出人意料。 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerald_Durrell
不同的书需要不同的读法,或许不同的生活背景也会指引我们找到适合的书。 起初,我读这本书的时候,用的是读经管图书的快速阅读法。这一行写草,这一行写花,这一行……这一行……恩,然后呢?一般般嘛。 但是直到……我读到了作者关于第一只乌龟的故事。 可能由于家里也养...
评分灿烂的阳光下,达雷尔一家人走在金黄的沙滩上,海风吹拂着他们的脸颊,舒服又惬意。 这套书是妈妈推荐的,我只懒洋洋地翻了几页,就无可救药地陷入了故事之中。杰拉尔德的文风像香甜的苹果一样,虽然脆蹦蹦的,却愈发令人回味无穷。他的文字有一种单纯的、直接的感染...
评分先看的剧。画面真的很美。即使剧中有无理取闹和争吵,还是觉得很美好。好像是第四集还是第五集,在一次争吵中,有个人咆哮地说我们过的什么日子,才感觉到这样的生活不太现实。 正好也有人向我强烈推荐这本书。期待很大。但是不知道为什么读来觉得一般。可能是因为对大自然的了...
