Sue Townsend's Adrian Mole novels are among the most celebrated works of British comic fiction. It begins in 1982 with a lovesick teenager convinced he is an intellectual trapped in a hopeless suburban family, and follows him through university, failed romances, unlikely careers, fatherhood, illness, and middle age. Each volume is a self-contained comic gem, yet together the eight books form a continuous portrait of a man, and a country, growing older. Townsend's writing is razor-sharp, warm, and wickedly funny, blending farce with genuine poignancy about class, ambition, and ordinary life. This complete paperback collection lets readers experience Adrian's entire journey in order, cherished by long-time fans and newcomers alike..
