Summary
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?

superb
yet again, Sue Townsend produces another comic masterpiece involving her most enduring charactor Adrian Mole. As with the most recent books in this series, the mixing of humour and sadness is wonderfully done and this book is no exception. One of the best things about these books is that even though most of the situation our hapless hero finds himself in are totally unrealistic and yet, you find yourself believing in them and in Adrian himself... wouldn't we all love to know someone like him? lastly, a word on the reader- a great choice, Mark Hadfield read the book wonderfully.

sad and funny
How can a book about marital breakdown, redundancy and cancer be so funny? I absolutely loved this book and was sorry to reach the end. Sue Townsend has not written a sequel so far, what a shame. If anyone has a relation or friend with cancer, read this. I loved Hadfield's narration, and will look for others read by him.

The Adrian We've Grown Up With
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.

I was very impressed by the narrator's excellent reading of possibly the best of the saga of Adrian Mole.

Adrian Mole at his finest.
Sue Townsend's sharp observational skills are always a delight to read (or hear) as ever.

Like catching up with an old friend.
Really enjoy the Adrian Mole books, the narrator is excellent and does a brilliant job of bringing the characters to life.
