'An achingly funny anti-hero' Daily Mail 'My comfort read. The best
diaries ever written - with apologies to Samuel Pepys, Bridget
Jones and me' ADAM KAY In the SIXTH book in Sue Townsend's
hilarious and iconic series, Adrian, Leicester's most unlikely
ex-con, faces the nit-infested reality of being a single parent . .
. __________ Monday January 3, 2000 So how do I greet the New
Millennium? In despair. I'm a single parent, I live with my mother
. . . I have a bald spot the size of a jaffa cake on the back of my
head . . . I can't go on like this, drifting into early middle-age.
I need a Life Plan . . . The 'same age as Jesus when he died',
Adrian Mole has become a martyr: a single-father bringing up two
young boys in an uncaring world. With the ever-unattainable Pandora
pursuing her ambition to become Labour's first female PM; his
over-achieving half-brother Brett sponging off him; and literary
success elusive, Adrian tries to make ends meet and find a purpose.
But little does he realise that his own modest life is about to
come to the attention of those charged with policing The War
Against Terror . . . __________ 'One of the great comic creations
of our time. Almost every page of his diaries bring a smile to the
face' Scotsman 'The funniest person in the world' Caitlin Moran
