Corfu trilogy

The Corfu trilogy is the unofficial name for three autobiographical books by British naturalist Gerald Durrell, giving humorous, exaggerated and sometimes fictionalised stories of the years that he lived as a child with his siblings and widowed mother on the Greek island of Corfu between 1935 and 1939. It describes the life of the Durrell family in a humorous manner, and explores the fauna of the island.[1]

The three are: My Family and Other Animals (1956); Birds, Beasts, and Relatives (1969); and The Garden of the Gods (1978).
