I have Amateurs in Eden, the story of a Bohemian Marriage: Nancy and Lawrence Durrell and he doesn't come off very well in that, but the subtitle "written by her daughter" (Joanna Hodgkin) does indicate it's going to take Nancy's side. That's 30s & 40s though.

The only Lawrence Durrell I've read is White Eagles over Serbia which a misguided English teacher made us read when I was twelve (in a class in which several pupils were extremely poor readers in the first place). It did not go well. I sat at the back reading PG Wodehouse while people threw things at each other mostly.
