The Diary of a Nobody

The Diary of a Nobody

In the PENGUIN CLASSICS series, this is the story of Mr Pooter, an office clerk and upright family man in a dull 1880s suburb. His diary is a wonderful portrait of the class system and inherent snobbishness of the suburban middle classes. It contains all the original illustrations, a critical introduction and notes.
