Zoo Father
£8.72
Second collection from the poet of powerful emotions & vivid imagery The Zoo Father underlines the authors reputation as a questing poet capable of outstanding imagistic flourishes & surprising associations. This extraordinary & powerful volume is comprised of two sections the first about with the poets relationship with her father the second with her mother. Section One is heavily imbued with imagery of the poets travels in South America & her researches in the cultures & ecology of the Venezuelan. Pain anger bewilderment are refracted through a rich often sensual imagery of fauna hallucinatory drugs & tribal beliefs. This gives the poems their originality & prevents subject matter of childhood abandonment & abuse becoming too harrowing. The imagery adapted from shamanistic beliefs is especially memorable. Section Two is set in southern France in an almost equally exotic location of vineyards & dinosaur plateaux. It concerns the poets family holidays in the vineyard" & her rediscovery & subsequent repossession of that place. Once again the poems delineate a primary relationship (with the poets mother) with the lushness of the imagery putting into surprising context the development of that relationship." ...

' For many years I had wanted to start a zoo.. .any reasonable person smitten with an ambition of this sort would have secured the zoo first & obtained the animals afterwards. but throughout my life I have rarely if ever achieved what I wanted by tackling it in a logical fashion'.

Journeying to Cameroon he & his wife collected numerous mammals birds & reptiles including Cholmondely the chimpanzee & Bug-eye the bush-baby. But their problems really began when they attempted to return with their exotic menagerie. Not only had they to get them safely home to Britain but they also had to find somewhere able &
- most of all
- willing to house them. Told with wit & a zest for all things furry & feathered Gerald Durrell's "A Zoo in My Luggage" is a brilliant account of how a pioneer of wildlife preservation came to found a new type of zoo."

Zoo Time
£8.27
Novelist Guy Ableman is in thrall to his vivacious wife Vanessa a strikingly beautiful red-head contrary highly strung & blazingly angry. The trouble is he is no less in thrall to her alluring mother Poppy. More like sisters than mother & daughter they come as a pair a blistering presence that destroys Guys peace of mind suggesting the wildest stories but making it impossible for him to concentrate long enough to write any of them. Not that anyone reads Guy anyway. Not that anyone is reading anything. Reading Guy fears is finished. His publisher fearing the same has committed suicide. His agent like all agents is in hiding. Vanessa in the meantime is writing a novel of her own. Guy doesnt expect her to finish it or even start it but he dreads the consequences if she does. In flight from personal disappointment & universal despair Guy wonders if its time to take his love for Poppy to another level. Fiction might be dead but desire isnt. & out of that desire he imagines squeezing one more great book. By turns angry elegiac & rude Zoo Time is a novel about love
- love of women love of literature love of laughter. It shows our funniest writer at his brilliant best.
