Description
To celebrate his 50th birthday, the poems of misunderstood intellectual Adrian Mole are published in one volume for the first time.

For the first time in a single volume, the collected poems of misunderstood intellectual and tortured poet Adrian Mole.%%%Mole Press - a brand new imprint of Penguin Books - is proud to announce the first publication of The Collected Poems of Adrian Mole to mark the author's 50TH birthday.
Featuring poems scattered over nearly thirty years of writing and salvaged from the diaries 'authored' by one Sue Townsend, this slim volume features more than thirty pieces of Adrian's unique art.
From his timeless first documented poem - The Tap - via classic odes to his muse, first and only true love Pandora (I adore ya), we follow Adrian's life in verse form. We not only witness his burgeoning political anger in works like Mrs Thatcher (Do you weep, Mrs Thatcher, do you weep?) but also see in later poems his merciless examination of the hollow shell of masculinity as well as documenting his declining libido in tragic pieces like To My Organ.
For the first time in a single volume, these are the collected poems of misunderstood intellectual and tortured poet Adrian Mole.
