The Great Urban Ark

‘The Great Urban Ark’ is a compilation of the author Angelique Jurd’s delightful and engrossing description of the interactions between the residents, humans and others, of her urban household. This e-book brings together the monthly articles Angelique wrote, as editor, for a newspaper column. Covering a year full of incidents, joys, tragedies, challenges, successes and failures, it beautifully captures Angelique’s inimitable writing style. The award-winning American author Mary T. Wagner describes Angelique’s overflowing talent when she quotes “Jurd, a writer, editor and reviewer in Auckland, New Zealand, is a woman after my own heart.” Mary aptly sums up the e-book: “All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable and heart-warming read, and certainly proof positive that a life without our beloved pets, whether furred or feathered, would be a sere and sorry one, indeed.”
