'In the gloom it came along the branches towards me, its round,
hypnotic eyes blazing, its spoon-like ears turning to and fro
independently like radar dishes . . . it was Lewis Carroll's
Jabberwocky come to life . . . one of the most incredible creatures
I had ever been privileged to meet.' The fourth largest island in
the world, Madagascar is home to woodlice the size of golf balls,
moths the size of Regency fans and the Aye-Aye, a type of lemur
held by local superstion to be an omen of death. But when Gerald
Durrell visited the island, the destruction of the forests meant
that the Aye-Aye and many other creatures were in danger of
extinction. Told with his unique sense of humour and inimitable
charm, Gerald Durrell's The Aye Aye and I is the final adventure
from one of Britain's best loved conservationists.
