The Diary of a Nobody

Charles Pooter, an exemplary family man, has been working for twenty years in the office of a small firm in the City of London. After moving in with his wife to the wonderful six-room (not counting the basement!) residence "Laurels,"... Mr. Pooter becomes enchanted with the name of their new home and decides to keep a diary (of course, worthy of publication, no matter what the family says), in which he records everything that happens to him during the day. "The Diary of a Nobody" has been one of the best examples of English humorous prose for over a hundred years, having a huge influence on all subsequent representatives of the genre. Witty descriptions, funny situations, brilliant dialogues, and colorful characters will bring a smile even to the most discerning and demanding readers. It is included in the list of "1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die."
