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.

在等女儿下课的闲隙中很偶然的拿起这本书,没想到刚刚打开书页就被他深深吸引住了。一个十岁的小男孩不用上学,天天在阳光明媚的希腊小岛上晃悠,山坡上捉捉虫,海岸边打打滚,不用劳累于案牍,伤神于成绩,自由自在滴接受大自然的教育。。。。。。 作者说:“科孚...

全世界最顽童的顽童达雷尔的经典作品,还拍成电视剧《达雷尔一家》,我是看了电视机慕名来看的书籍。平心而论,电视剧改编的比较多,但是主线没变,唯美的风景和奇妙的动物,还有有趣的家人,这些都完美的展现了。 10岁的Gerry真是幸运,从沉郁的英国移居到阳光的希腊科孚岛,...

我的内心是幽暗的,我的内心是浮躁的,我的内心因为黑暗而变得复杂混淆,就像夜里总会有许多动物跑出来,你看不真,但是它们的一举一动,鸣叫嘶吼低语清唱都会让你神经质地感到害怕恐惧。 但白天来临,内心的黑暗依旧无法得到救赎。 阳光有时候给了你一点点麻痹,让你觉得自己...

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...

Writing came naturally to Gerald Durrell, so did humor. Nearly forgot how professional British could be at being socially awkward.???? Carry on folks.

多年前读过一个中文版,现在哪里都找不到了。很特别很动人的书。作者是个自然学家,动物园主,特别爱动物的人,从书名就看得出来。他的文笔特别幽默,因为下意识里从动物的角度看待世界,于是行文总是出人意料。 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerald_Durrell
