Adrian Mole and the Weapons of Mass Destruction

by Sue Townsend

Adrian Mole, now age thirty four and three quarters, needs proof that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction so he can get a refund from the travel agency of the deposit he paid on a trip to Cyprus. Naturally, he writes to Tony Blair for some evidence.

He's engaged to Marigold, but obsessed with her voluptuous sister, yet he doesn't want anyone to think ill of him. And he is so deeply in debt to banks and credit card companies that it would take more than twice his monthly salary to ever repay them.

He needs a guest speaker for his Creative Writing group's dinner in Leicestershire and wonders if Cherie Blair is available.

In short, Adrian is back in true form, unable-like so many people we know, but of course, not us-to credit that the world does not revolve around him. But recognizing the universal core in Adrian's dilemmas is what makes them so agonizingly funny.
