my next nostalgic question...

" Based on the memoir by naturalist Gerald Durrell...a family that moves from England to the Greek island of Corfu to escape the bleak weather... the book is indeed very humorous n unputdownable !!"

Oh! For a summer in Corfu...

This book isn抰 too musty. It smells of my house and of a small island in Greece, where I believe innocence still walks the hills, where mad englishmen write bad poetry after getting drunk and stolid women

go down to the bazaars in search of fresh fruit.

Of Corfu and the Flavoured Villas - (1935 -39)

Gerald Durrel has enchanted readers for decades now with his bittersweet experiences with animals, some a part of his family. This is one of the first in his autobiographical series of novels wherein we grow to understand a young Gerald and his love for animals. Not to mention family and a few other lunatics. This is a memoir about a very young Gerald and his family at Corfu, in Greece. Surrounded by a plethora of madcaps and of course loads and loads of animals. What is interesting firstly is the style. When Durrel writes as an 8 year old, you feel as if an 8 year old is the one making conversation with you.

The world ceases to make sense and if you put the book down for even a second, and breathe trying to take on the reality of the world around you, you can抰. It抯 still the magical world of Corfu that you see and want to be there with them. So you look down at the book and start the fantasy again.

It抯 as much a novel about coming of age as it is about animals. Comparisons might be drawn to Cronin抯扐 Song of Sixpence

instead of you guys giving a quiz, why don't i give it this time? tak susah mana pun

this romance book was written in a modern setting by one of the greatest romance author from our time..

hint:
Two strong-willed characters maintain 11 years of unwarranted hostility based on a series of misunderstandings in this engaging romance, which was a BOMC main selection in cloth and spent 11 weeks on PW 's hardcover bestseller list.

Heiress to a famous department store fortune, she chafes under the strict supervision of her interfering father. When she meets ambitious, handsome steelworker, she is ripe for the picking, and trouble brews on both sides of the tracks when she becomes pregnant at 18. The author's skillful treatment of heroine, the self-styled ugly duckling and poor little rich girl, will pique readers' interest and engage their sympathy. This interest is sorely tested, however, as the heroine's relationship with hero strains the imagination.
