Jane McVeigh
Sue Townsend grew up in working-class Leicestershire and left school at 14. In the 70s she was a young, single mother working in youth and community services, writing her creation on the side and carrying it around in secret for years, nervous of how it would be received.
She went on to become the bestselling author of the 1980s, and one of the most beloved and savage comic observers of modern British class – and much of what she said remains relevant today.
In Adrian Mole, C’est Moi, Jane McVeigh uncovers who Sue Townsend really was, and how much of herself she poured into her most famous creation, Adrian Mole. With the humorous, self-deprecating and fiercely observant tone of Townsend’s own writing, this book weaves together never-before-seen material with the fictional, hilariously neurotic world of Adrian Mole, and places Townsend where she belongs – as one of Britain’s greatest satirical writers.
