I laughed out loud while reading this book September 27, 2008
When reading a humorous book I normally laugh inwardly but The Garden of the Gods made me laugh out loud many times. It is warm and nostalgic and a total pleasure. Furthermore, there is wisdom in the child's view of the world that Durrell depicts so well.
an excellent conclusion to the corfu trilogy July 29, 2003

Like the other two books depicting Gerald Durrell's life as a young boy on Corfu this book has the same childlike innocence, wonderful humour and enchanting imagery that Durrell is so famous for.
A must read, and totally unputdownable...i didn't want it to end.
Brilliantly funny conclusion of the Corfu Trilogy: July 12, 2003
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Gerald Durrell does it again in this book succeeding in not only painting a true, vivid and beautiful picture of life on the Island of Corfu, but in regaling us with the humerous antics of his friends, family and his animals. A wonderful conclusion to the trilogy and a book that i would very much love to own again.
