This is the story of how, one by one, a man found himself a family. Almost nowhere in fiction is there a stranger, dearer, or funnier family -- and the life that the members of The Animal Family live together, there in the wilderness beside the sea, is as extraordinary and as enchanting as the family itself.
这是一本极为独特的童话,讲的是一个男人如何一个接一个地找来家庭成员,为自己建立起了一个家庭。在以往的所有小说中,都没有哪个家庭比这个更加奇怪、更加充满温情、更加有趣,而且,《动物家庭》的成员在海边的荒野上所一起经历的生活,也和这个家庭一样不同寻常,充满魅力。
