Krátky popis
‘A renegade who was right . . .He was truly a man before his time’
SIR DAVID ATTENBOROUGH‘An account of Durrell’s very first job, as
an animal handler at Whipsnade, just after the end of the Second
World War, an experience that helped fashion his philosophy of
animal keeping’ GUARDIANAt the age of two I made up my mind quite
firmly and unequivocally that the only thing I wanted to do was to
study animals. Nothing else interested me. Republished to celebrate
the centenary of his birth, here is Gerald Durrell’s legendary
account of his coming-of-age as a reader, writer and budding
naturalist at Whipsnade Zoo.He joyfully recaptures the glory of
this single formative year where, in the crucible of muck, operatic
brown bears, and reading Pliny by night and tending to the lions by
day, the passionate worldview of one of the century’s great
animal-loving renegades came into full view. ‘One of the finest and
most lyrical nature writers in English’ OBSERVER
