The Grossmith brothers' comedic masterpiece allows us a peek inside the diaries of the absurdly self-important Charles Pooter, a London banker frustrated by life at every turn.
Detailing the snubs and disappointments and gaffes that befall the hapless Pooter, The Diary of a Nobody has been an laugh-out-loud success for well over a century.
As former prime minister Lord Roseberry says in the notes to this Apostrophe Books edition: "I regard any bedroom I occupy as unfurnished without a copy of it."
