About the book

Birds; Beasts; and Relatives by Gerald Durrell is an autobiography for adult readers.

Gerald Durrell's beloved account of his childhood in Corfu, now in Penguin Modern Classics for the first time 'Another tiger-golden day lay ahead of us. It was as though England had never really existed'. The Durrell clan's escapades on their Greek island home resume with the second volume of the Corfu Trilogy.

Budding zoologist Gerald continues to explore the natural wonders around him, enjoying a night fishing trip, receiving a donkey as a birthday present and accidentally bringing a bear home for tea. Here too are more stories of the eccentric creatures he calls his family, including Margo's ill-advised foray into spiritualism and what becomes known as 'Mother's Great Romance'.
