About this listen

George and Weedon Grossmith's The Diary of a Nobody paints a detailed picture of life in 1892. Pooter's diary notes his daily business, parties, embarrassments, and his agitated relationship with son Lupin - a strikingly familiar world, brought to life by Keith Wickham, which provides continual amusement.

I came across this audiobook by chance, and was drawn to how unusual it was. It’s a diary format, with random summaries at the beginning of each chapter which tells you the main points of what is going to happen. It was an unusual but enjoyable listen.

Enjoyable

I have read the original book and have always found this entertaining.Full of subtle wit it gives us an inside view of suburban Victorian Britain,and an exploration of the similarities between human nature in Victorian times and now. The narrator bring the characters to life.

Fascinating gentle humour
