The next meeting of Thetford’s informal nonfiction book discussion group
will take place at Latham Library on Thetford Hill on Tuesday January 30th
at 7 pm.

We will be discussing Birds, Beasts and Relatives by Gerald Durrell.

This book is the second volume of the Corfu Trilogy, about Durrell’s
childhood years on the island of Corfu in the 1930s.   He became a renowned
animal collector and conservationist and a pioneer of breeding endangered
species in captivity, having founded his own zoo on the island of Jersey.

For those of you who read on Kindle, the whole trilogy is currently on sale
at a very reasonable price.  The Corfu Trilogy: My Family and Other Animals; Birds, Beasts and Relatives; and The Garden of the Gods

The book may be obtained from your local library, via interlibrary loan,
possibly as an audio or e-book via ListenUp Vermont, or in New Hampshire,  New Hampshire Downloadable Books.  Users need only get a barcode number from their local library to use the services.  Or you can obtain the book from your favorite local bookseller,
or via www.bookfinder.comt, the aggregator site for booksellers both large and small from all over the world, and for books both new and secondhand.

All are welcome and we look forward to seeing you.
