Adrian Mole: The Cappuccino Years

Adrian Mole is now in his thirties, separated from his wife, raising two sons, and trying to turn modest television recognition into a lasting career. His unfinished novel remains unpublished, his former love Pandora is entering politics, and changes in his parents' lives unsettle him. Through his diary, Adrian records domestic crises, professional disappointments, and late-1990s Britain with the familiar mixture of confidence and self-deception. The fifth Adrian Mole novel follows the character into adulthood while retaining the comic perspective established in his teenage diaries.
