"Picnic and Other Nightmares" is a sequel to the novels "My Family and Other Animals" - "a book that is literally enchanting" (Sunday Times) and "the most delightful idyll imaginable" (The New Yorker), "Birds, Beasts and Relatives" and "The Garden of the Gods", as well as the collection of short stories "Holidays, Animals and Other Absurdities". With unfailing love and inimitable humor, Durrell tells about the stay of his family (including his older brother Larry, that is, Lawrence Durrell - the future author of the famous "Alexandria Quartet") on the Greek island of Corfu and their further adventures, demonstrating the widest palette of writing skills, including a gothic ghost story. These novels and collections have sold millions of copies around the world, have become reference books for several generations of readers, and have even entered the school curriculum in England. The Corfu Trilogy (which has grown to six books over the years) has been adapted for television three times, most recently in 2016–2019, when ITV produced The Durrells, a series co-directed by Edward Hall (Downton Abbey, Agatha Christie's Marple).
