Shortlisted for the Costa First Novel Award. 'Glorious. I will be
astonished if I read a more original, more inventive or funnier
novel this year.' - Adam Kay, author of This Is Going to Hurt Part
tender love story, part murder mystery, part hilarious description
of a wasted life, and interspersed with some of the funniest poems
about the mundane and the profound, Diary of a Somebody is a
stunningly original novel from Twitter sensation, Brian Bilston.
It's January 1st and Brian Bilston is convinced that this year, his
New Year's resolution will change his life. Every day for a year,
he will write a poem. It's quite simple. Brian's life certainly
needs improving. His ex-wife has taken up with a new man, he seems
to constantly disappoint his long-suffering son, and at work he is
drowning in a sea of spreadsheets and management jargon. So poetry
will be his salvation. But there is an obstacle in the form of Toby
Salt, his arch nemesis at Poetry Club and rival suitor to Liz,
Brian's new poetic inspiration. When Toby goes missing, just after
the announcement of the publication of his first collection, This
Bridge No Hands Shall Cleave, Brian becomes the number one suspect.
If he is to regain his reputation and to have a chance of winning
Liz, he must find out what has happened to Toby before it is too
late.
