Publisher's Summary

Meet Adrian Mole, a hapless teenager providing an unabashed, pimples-and-all glimpse into adolescent life. Writing candidly about his parents' marital troubles, the dog, and his life as a tortured poet and 'misunderstood intellectual', Adrian's painfully honest diary is still hilarious and compelling reading thirty years after it first appeared.

Critic Reviews

"We laugh both at Mole and with him. A wonderful comic read, that, like all the best comedy, says something rather meaningful." (Heat)

Sensitively written

Sincerely care about Adrian and his family and friends. I wish i knew them. Human beings with human traits and frailties.

Sicth!

The narrator can't say the word "sixth" to save himself. And it comes up a surprising number of times in this book. Down with sicth! it's killing me. I adore the book in general though and I'm enjoying the performance, (apart from sicth).

Funny and a good pick me up

Entertaining. Funny. Dramatic.

Loved the style of writing. It takes you back to teenage awkward times and explores the dramas and challenges of being a teenager in a beautiful clever way.
