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.
Writing came naturally to Gerald Durrell, so did humor. Nearly forgot how professional British could be at being socially awkward.???? Carry on folks.
評分原文非常流暢 用詞太美瞭 讀起來又輕鬆又快樂
評分英劇細節拍得太少瞭,書本正好補充下~ 像Mrs Durrell這樣的媽媽真的太棒瞭~
評分多年前讀過一個中文版,現在哪裏都找不到瞭。很特彆很動人的書。作者是個自然學傢,動物園主,特彆愛動物的人,從書名就看得齣來。他的文筆特彆幽默,因為下意識裏從動物的角度看待世界,於是行文總是齣人意料。 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerald_Durrell
評分令人開心。

評分对于整本书,我有两个地方印象特别深刻: 一个是这本书开头,科孚岛海域图上的那句“小心! 由于标示浅滩的标识经常移位,船员航行这一代的海域时,请自行保持警戒。” 另一个就是结束时的那首诗,《给未来人类的一封信》 我们希望未来会有萤火虫在夜晚指引你, 会有蝴蝶在灌丛...
評分五一三天假,时间短暂,来不及又累又远的出门旅行,还是在家找个舒服的角落看书更惬意自在。我已经安排好了计划,《希腊三部曲》是必读书目,用纯真的心、童稚的眼观看科孚岛上优美的自然风景、各式各样的动物植物以及行径古怪的达雷尔的家人。如果哪位也喜欢,我们还可以...
