Adrian Mole faces the same agoniesthat life sets before most
adolescents: trouble s with girls, school, parents, and an uncaring
world. The difference, though, between young Master Mole andhis
peers is that this British lad keeps adiary--an earnest chronicle
of longingand disaster that has charmed morethan five million
readers since its two-volumeinitial publication. From
teenagedAdrian's anguished adoration of a lovely, mercurial
schoolmate to hisview of his parents' constantly creaking
relationship to hisheartfelt but hilarious attemptsat cathartic
verse, here is anoutrageous triumph of deadpan--anddeadly
accurate--satire. ABBA, PrincessDi's wedding, street punks, Monty
Python, the Falklands campaign . . . all the culturalpageantry of a
keenly observed eramarches past the unique perspective ofSue
Townsend's brilliant comic creation: A . Mole, the unforgettable
lad whoseself-absorption only gets funnier as hislife becomes more
desperate.
