The Diary of a Nobody George and Weedon Grossmith

"The Diary of a Nobody", with words by George Grossmith and illustrations by his actor-manager brother-Weedon, first appeared in Punch in 1891-2. Writing, he hopes, in the great tradition of Pepys and Boswell, Mr Charles Pooter regales us with choice anecdotes and domestic crises from life at "The Laurels", Brickfield Terrace, Holloway, and from his chequered career as a City clerk. The wayward behaviour of his son Lupin - intermittently engaged to the unsuitable Daisy Mutlar - is only one of the burdens he has to bear. When, against all the odds, Mr Pooter triumphs, we cannot help rejoicing in his good fortune. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The Diary of a Nobody (George and Weedon Grossmith)
