Beasts in My Belfry is the wonderfully funny memoir about Gerald Durrellâs time at Whipsnade Zoo and his experiences as a young zookeeper. Following the Second World War, Durrell joined Whipsnade Zoo as a junior keeper â an opportunity that fulfilled a lifelong dream. Thanks to Rupert Degasâs brilliant voicing, which captures all of Durrellâs charm and wit, the listener can enjoy being taken behind the scenes of one of the worldâs very first zoos. This is a delightful portrait of the animals who lived there and those who looked after them.
