Sue Townsend - Adrian Mole: The Prostrate Years

Sue Townsend - Adrian Mole: The Prostrate Years
By Sue Townsend

Sunday 1st July:

"NO SMOKING DAY. A momentous day! Smoking in a public place or place of work is forbidden in England. Though if you are a prisoner, an MP, or a member of the Royal Family, you are exempt."

Adrian Mole is thirty-nine and a quarter. He lives in the country in a semi-detached converted pigsty with his wife Daisy and their daughter. His parents George and Pauline live in the adjoining pigsty. But all is not well.

The second-hand bookshop in which Adrian works is threatened with closure. The spark has fizzled out of his marriage. His mother is threatening to write her autobiography (A Girl Called Shit). And Adrian's nightly trips to the lavatory have become alarmingly frequent...

This laugh-out-loud final chapter in Adrian's story will have you hooked from the very beginning as you discover what he gets up to next.
