«Querida, comprei um zoo» is the memoir by Benjamin Mee, published by Casa das Letras in paperback (261 pages, in Portuguese).
In October 2006, Benjamin Mee and his family sell everything and move to a ruined zoo on the edge of Dartmoor. Among lions, tigers and bears, they chase an escaped jaguar and secure a half-million-pound mortgage while Katherine, his wife, who had overcome a brain tumour, shows signs of relapse.
The work was originally published in English as «We Bought a Zoo» (2008); this Portuguese edition was translated by Renato Carreira.
For readers of memoirs and non-fiction about animals and family life; also a good choice for reading groups.
