The Diary of a Nobody
Penguin Main Series 510. 1st Edition, published 1945.
Mr Charles Pooter is a respectable man. He has just moved into a very desirable home in Holloway with his dear wife Carrie, from where he commutes to his job of valued clerk at a reputable bank in the City. Unfortunately neither his dear friends Mr Cummings and Mr Gowing, nor the butcher, the greengrocer's boy and the Lord Mayor seem to recognise Mr Pooter's innate gentility, and his disappointing son Lupin has gone and got himself involved with a most unsuitable fiancee. George and Weedon Grossmith's comic novel, is a glorious, affectionate caricature of the English middle-class at the end of nineteenth century.
