 Adult Durrell mayhem - great stuff February 6, 2001
10 out of 11 found this review helpful
If you couldn't get enough of the Durrells after the Corfu series, here's a book for you! Absolutely hilarious and well-written in characteristic Durrell style, The Picnic is laugh-out-loud funny, recounting the ill-fated expedition of the grown-up Durrell family to the Purbecks for a picnic. Larry is as caustically funny as ever, being particularly germ-phobic and Mother tries to keep the peace when mayhem ensues. Wonderfully entertaining reading.
