About this listen

Adrian Mole is 39 and a quarter. Due to his financial situation, he has been forced to move next door to his parents. And his numerous nightly visits to the lavatory lead him to suspect prostate trouble.

As his worries multiply, a phone call to his old flame ignites powerful memories and makes him wonder - is she the only one who can save him now?

Laugh Out Loud Fantastic

I was first introduced to Adrian Mole back in 1986 whilst on one of those survival skills camping trip with school, never looked back following him through all his decades into the Prostrate Years. This one is beautifully written, soft, warm, sad, hilarious, harmonious, its the adrian we grew up with matured, coping with health crisis, marriage breakup, redundancy, what ever life throws at him but finding his way through into a happy balance regardless. Adrian Mole is a hero, if you've followed the series dont miss this one its absolutely brilliantly written and narrated, entertaining and funny with lots of heartwarming moments too. Definitely a Five stars listen which has left me wanting more tales from Adrian Mole in the future.

The entire set of Adrian Mole books are a work of genius. This rounds it off perfectly. I would always hope for more.

A thing of beauty.

it was good to be reminded that we had survived the economic recession Adrian et al were about to experience, but I fear that even Sue Townsend couldn't recount with her amazing humour to capture Covid"s curse and Putin's
provokations! has made we want to go back and listen to all the books again.

So relevant to today
