James Herriot Libri

E' il terzo volume di una serie che racconta le avventure di un veterinario di campagna, l'autore stesso, e il rapporto esclusivo che lo lega agli animali.

Cani, gatti, pecore, mucche, cavalli, tutte quelle 'creature grandi e piccole' che si ammalano, guariscono, muoiono come gli esseri umani sono i veri, straordinari protagonisti di storie indimenticabili. Umorismo e dramma, tenerezza e commozione pervadono tutte le pagine di questo libro. "Per amore di tutte le creature" è ricco di spunti autobiografici e di episodi inediti nei quali si alternano personaggi simpatici e antipatici, stravaganti o scorbutici, legati ai ritmi sereni della vita in campagna.

James Herriot è un veterinario scozzese innamorato del suo lavoro. Ma è anche uno scrittore e in questo libro ci racconta con humour i suoi primi due anni di professione trascorsi nello Yorkshire. Accade così che anche il più distratto abitante di una metropoli dei nostri giorni si scopre spettatore commosso di eventi ormai dimenticati, come la nascita di un agnello o il ritorno della primavera.

A collection of delightful children's tales - from the springtime frolic of Oscar, Cat-About-Town to the yuletide warmth of The Christmas Day Kitten.
