About this product

Product Information

The Corfu Trilogy consists of the popular classic My Family and Other Animals and its delightful sequels, Birds, Beasts and Relatives and The Garden of the Gods. All three books are set on the enchanted island of Corfu in the 1930s, and tell the story of the eccentric English family who moved there. 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 animal-collecting 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 hangers-on, The Corfu Trilogy also captures the beginnings of the author's lifelong love of animals. Recounted with immense humour and charm, this wonderful account of Corfu's natural history reveals a rare, magical childhood.

    Fictive-factive, but entertaining.

    The Corfu Trilogy combines Gerald Durrell's three fictive-factive works (My Family and Other Animals, Birds, Beasts and Relatives, The Garden of the Gods) about his family's lives on Corfu. It introduces the distinctive family members (Mother, Lawrence (Larry), Leslie, Margaret (Margo) and Gerald (Gerry) as well as the two especially significant locals, Spiro and Theo. As Margo observes, "Writers are liars", Gerald Durrell neglects some facts, twists some others and writes to entertain. He has succeeded.

    I found gerald durrell to be informative and very humerous - i chuckled often

    Delightful! The way gerald durrell writes is quite informative as well as being intriguing. Of course, as he always has been, quite funny - he makes me chuckle often.

    A wonderful read

    Such a good out loud laugh in so many places, and great descriptions of Corfu and the characters. I wanted to start from the beginning again after I had finished.p

    Great and rare opportunity to have 3 stories in 1 volume.

    Rare edition with 3 stories in 1 book. I bought for Grandson because I had found the stories uniquely informative and educational and very funny.
