About this book

“My Family and Other Animals” is a memoir by British naturalist Gerald Durrell, first unveiled in 1956. The book humorously chronicles the period from 1935 to 1939 when Durrell, as a child, lived with his family on the Greek island of Corfu.

It offers an entertaining narrative of the Durrell family’s adventures, from the quirky individuals they meet to the endless parade of animals that find their way into their home. The book is structured into three parts, each representing the three villas where the family resided on the island. It is the inaugural and most popular book of Durrell’s Corfu trilogy, which also includes “Birds, Beasts, and Relatives” and “The Garden of the Gods”.
