Opis

Re-issued with the charming original artwork from 1982, The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13 3/4 will rouse the nostalgia of a nation who have Sue Townsend firmly in their hearts. Tuesday January 1st Bank Holiday in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. These are my New Year's resolutions: I will help the blind across the road; I will hang my trousers up; I will put the sleeves back on my records; I will not start smoking; I will stop squeezing my spots; I will be kind to the dog; I will help the poor and ignorant; and After hearing the disgusting noises from downstairs last night. I have also vowed never to drink alcohol...Meet Adrian Mole, a hapless teenager providing an unabashed, pimples-and-all glimpse into adolescent life. Telling us candidly about his parents' marital troubles, The Dog, 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. "Townsend has held a mirror up to the nation and made us happy to laugh at what we see in it". (Sunday Telegraph). Sue Townsend was born in Leicester in 1946. Despite not learning to read until the age of eight, leaving school at fifteen with no qualifications and having three children by the time she was in her mid-twenties, she always found time to read widely. She also wrote secretly for twenty years. After joining a writer's group at The Phoenix Theatre Leicester, she won a Thames Television award for her first play, Womberang, and became a professional playwright and novelist. After the publication of The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole aged 13 thirty years ago, Sue continued made the nation laugh and pricked its conscience. She wrote seven further volumes of Adrian's diaries and five other popular novels - including The Queen and I and Number Ten - and numerous well received plays. Sue passed away in 2014 at the age of sixty-eight. She is widely regarded as Britain's favourite comic writer.
