Opis
A posthumous work from the beloved conservationist and naturalist Gerald Durrell, to celebrate the centenary of his birth, with a new foreword by HRH Princess Anne.
'Gerald Durrell was magic' - SIR DAVID ATTENBOROUGH
'A wise, genial and world-encompassing book' - SUNDAY TIMES
'Fills important gaps in the biographical narrative... Truly, there is magic here' - GUARDIAN
Myself and Other Animals is a new book mosaicked from unpublished autobiographies, uncollected pieces and previously published extracts from Durrell's work and archives. The result is an extraordinary journey through Durrell's life in his own words, edited and introduced by his widow Lee Durrell.
Drawing on a memoir that Durrell started writing before he became too ill to continue it, and an unfinished book from a trip to Australia in 1969 to the Great Barrier Reef, Northern Territory and Queensland, here is the unvarnished story of Durrell's life, from touching family tributes to golden bats and pink pigeons.
Moving from India to England and then to the always sun-lit Corfu, told with dry wit and insight into our fellow animals, here is the vivid finale of one of Britain's most beloved conservationists and prose stylists.
'Funny and readable and hugely charming' - i
'One of the finest and most lyrical nature writers in English' - OBSERVER
'A moving tribute to Gerald's endeavours and achievements as a conservationist' - SPECTATOR
