6For fans of the PBS Masterpiece Theater series, The Durrells in Corfu--here's what happened next
After leaving the island of Corfu, Durrell, his mother, his brother Leslie and their Greek maid Maria Kondos moved back to Britain in 1939. It was difficult to find work, especially for a home-schooled boy, but Durrell managed to land a job as a helper at an aquarium and pet store. This is the story of those years and you can read this book for the humor alone (for Durrell did perceive his family as some rarefied species).
