My Family and Other Animals

My Family and Other Animals pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025

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.

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.

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...

在出版“希腊三部曲”的那段日子里时间似乎永远凝固在酒醉的橄榄树林里,不论有多少工作压负在肩,有多少烦事郁结于心,只要翻开达雷尔的书稿世界万物皆可用欣赏的眼光温柔视之。 希腊伊甸园般的风景、作者“放浪形骸”的童年、温馨却异常搞笑的亲人,奇妙而又个性的动物,无论...

这一部因该是个记忆的补完,我是因为英剧《德雷尔的一家》才去读的原著,虽说原著没有影视剧那么戏剧化,但是却更显的细腻生活。两个作品都是佳作。 书中的一家人并不贫瘠,各种饕餮盛宴,让人垂涎欲滴,有趣的生活浪漫温馨。他们会在深夜的海里畅游,月光照印下海豚相伴。会把...
