Description

Bichos y demás parientes is the second part of Gerald Durrell's celebrated trilogy from Corfú, which begins with Mi familia y otros animales and concludes with El jardín de los dioses. This narrative follows the story of Durrell's family's stay on a Mediterranean island, intertwined with his own autobiographical account, filled with entertaining anecdotes about an enviable childhood spent in the fields and by the sea.

Through his observations of the natural world, Durrell explores the intriguing relationship between humans and animals, offering a unique perspective on the rationality of human behaviour. This translation by María Luisa Balseiro brings the story to life, providing an engaging read for those interested in the author's experiences and the fascinating creatures that inhabit our world.
