Adrian Mole
review 1: Brilliant and beautiful - once again Townsend weaves the razor sharp satire, when the family goes on Jeremy Kyle, with the powerfully human. Mole with Cancer and a disintegrating marriage is, for once, a man with very real problems.The middle-aged Mole is surrounded by people who are just as bemused at the state of modern Britain as he is; Bernard and Mr Carlton-Hayes are wonderful characters.But Mole may suffer from constant self-doubt, but his relationship with his son, Glenn, and the love and affection from those wonderful close characters proves that he has grown into a fine man.As his treatments proceed, we get to see Mole, at last, stop looking to the dreaming spires and start noticing what's around him. When he plays with his toddler daughter, Gracie, in the stream,... more it is really is lovely and touching.This is, so sadly, the last Mole book. I think our hero gets a happy ending.
review 2: This is my first foray into the Adrian Mole series (I have 5 of the other books at the ready). I liked it well enough - there are some laugh out loud moments. I did find the ending to be rather unsatisfactory from a reader's standpoint - it just ended without much resolution. Yes, this book is written in the style of a diary, and life is such that events aren't tied up neatly with a bow. However, as a reader, I feel that I was left hanging. I disliked most of the characters - his mother, father, wife, daughter, brother. The only characters I halfway liked were Adrian's colleagues at the bookstore.It will be interesting to start from the beginning of this beloved series! less
