(2024·广东深圳联考)
From cottages surrounded by impressive gardens to days spent exploring sandy beaches and
deep woods filled with wildlife,in My Family and Other Animals,English writer Gerald
Durrell provided a vivid account of his family’s time on the Greek island of Corfu in the 1930s.
Come for the arresting descriptions of Corfu landscapes and stay for Durrell’s laugh-out-
loud tales of his unusual family.This book,Durrell wrote humorously in the introduction,“wasintended to be a nostalgic(怀旧的) account of natural history,but in the first few pages,I made
the mistake of introducing my family.”
Durrell,later known for his zoo keeping and the preservation of wildlife,was just a child
during his family’s five-year stay in Corfu.He is 10-year-old Gerry in the book—curious ,
passionate about animals and a detailed storyteller of his strange family:his imaginative elder
brother Larry with his literary ambitions,love-struck sister Margo,sporty brother Leslie and his
ever-calm,loving mother.
Durrell’s attention to detail is what makes the book so winning,with every sight,sound
and smell of the island brought to life.One minute you’ll be laughing as Larry’s clever literary
friends walk down to the daffodil-yellow cottage,the next you’ll be catching your breath as
Durrell describes swimming at night in the Ionian Sea:“Lying on my back in the silky water,
staring at the sky,only moving my hands and feet slightly,I was looking at the Milky Way
stretching like a silk scarf across the sky and wondering how many stars it contained.”
My Family and Other Animals is quite difficult to classify,being one part travel,one part
autobiography,one part natural history,and one part comedy,with a thread of descriptive
language running throughout that sometimes raises it nearly to poetry.
As a real delight to read,it’s the perfect literary escapism for any adult or older teenager
who is currently walking down a tough road in life.

Indeed loneliness is now widely recognized as a major public health problem.What is perhaps
less obvious is one answer to the problem:the healing power of poetry to make us feel more
connected to others.
Here things get personal.I first got involved in how poetry can support our emotional well-
being after I wrote a memoir ,Black Rainbow:Hone Words Healed Me—My Journey
Through Depression,in 2014 about how poetry helped me through two serious periods of
depression.Since then,I’ve been running Healing Words poetry sessions for mental health
charities and prisons,and have discovered first-hand the lovely feeling of companionship which
poetry can bring.
Poetry lets us connect with other people who have experienced similar emotions.We’re not
alone in our despair or delight.When we have a poem by our side,whether tucked into a bag or ona bedside table,it feels like we’re being accompanied by a friend:an authorial arm is wrapped
around our shoulders.
I remember one woman starting to cry as she read Derek Walcott’s poem “Love After
Love” during a workshop held at my local hospital in West London.Fighting through tears,she
eventually said,“I feel understood.” Everyone in the room knew exactly what she meant.
She had , in Walcott’s phrase , struggled to “love again the stranger who was
yourself”.The poet’s invitation to “Sit.Feast on your life” was the comfort she needed,in
a language which spoke to her,to imagine loving herself in a way she had always found
hard.Poetry had worked its magic,unlocking a feeling of inner connection,and in turn a
connection to all of us sitting in the workshop.
Given my own experience,I think having a poem to keep us company can help us all feel a
greater sense of belonging.
