Everything was described so wonderfully, and you almost felt like you were there too. Humour was also in the story, and some of the funnier moments had me laughing out loud. I am definitely going to read more of Mr Durrell's books. Gerald Durrell turns his engaging writing on his family dynamics. Quirky, eccentric, highly enjoyable read set in Corfu and boyhood. An absolutely cracking read with some laugh out loud passages. Durrell recaptures the lost magic of childhood. I have no idea how true to the author's real life the book is, but one feels if it isn't all true, it ought to be. It is very English, even thought most of the action takes place on Corfu - whether that matters depends on the reader I suppose.

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 Durrells familys 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.
