About this product

Product Information

Volume two in Gerald Durrell's Corfu Trilogy, which was the inspiration for the Masterpiece PBS series The Durrells in Corfu. Part coming-of-age autobiography and part nature guide, Gerald Durrell's dazzling sequel to My Family and Other Animals is based on his boyhood on Corfu, from 1933 to 1939. Originally published in 1969 but long out of print, Birds, Beasts, and Relatives is filled with charming observations, amusing anecdotes, boyhood memories, and childlike wonder.

A delightful book full of simple, well-known things: cicadas in the olive groves, lamp fishing at night, the complexities of fish and animals—but, above all, childhood molded by these things and intimately recalled in middle age. ( The New York Times Book Review )

Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

    Fun reading!

    Good reading. I am enjoying this writers books of memories of his younger self and his family set in the 1930's in Corfu. It must have been an interesting time with interesting people and interesting animals I had never thought of studying. The writer has a good way with words that are lyrical but not too much so.

    Super Beautiful

    Story is fun, and its words are super beautiful. This book is not as chronological as the previous of the series, "My Family and Other Animals". It's more like a collection of short events the author met on Corfu. Readers who want to know the whole story in a more organized way can read "My".
