Synopsis
Daphne Fielding describes the changing landscape of her life with intense gusto and infectious enjoyment. A recurring theme through the story is the Fielding "menagerie" which includes Pekingese dogs, owls, hedgehogs, a donkey, a chameleon, a parrot who swears in three languages, and a budgerigar whose favorite utterance is "Dirty Bugger Daph". A cat enters their lives 'his eyes twin orbs of chrysoprase flecked with yellow lichen' . . . They save a pigeon from the stew-pot, give it the run of the house and it learns to fly around with sprigs of olive branch in his beak. The Nearest Way Home will delight all of her many readers!
