Synopsis

The brothers George and Weedon Grossmith are the authors of the comic book The Diary of a Nobody. Charles Pooter and his wife Caroline (Carrie) have recently relocated to "The Laurels," Brickfield Terrace, Holloway. The Pooters are invited to the "Representatives of Trade and Commerce" event being held in the Mansion House. They are astonished to be welcomed by their neighbourhood ironmonger, who looks to be friendly with some of the more prominent attendees, when they arrive. Pooter drinks too much champagne and embarrasses Carrie by passing out on the dance floor. A new socioeconomic catastrophe starts April. The East Acton Rifle Brigade invites The Pooters to a ball, but it's a tacky, downtrodden affair. Pooter receives a large bill, and additional social gatherings-like a luncheon with Mr. Finsworth and a meeting with Mr. Hardfur Huttle, who resembles a more experienced Lupin-become unpleasant. Read this humorous fiction novel to know how he overcomes the situation.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

George Grossmith, an English humorist, writer, composer, actor, and singer, lived from 9 December 1847 to 1 March 1912. Over four decades made up his performing career. He produced 18 humorous operas, approximately 100 musical sketches, 600 songs and piano compositions, three books, as well as serious and lighthearted articles for newspapers and publications. Weedon and George Grossmith are brothers. Walter Weedon Grossmith, also known as Weedon Grossmith, was an English writer, painter, actor, and playwright. He is best known for co-authoring The Diary of a Nobody (1892) with his brother, the music hall comedian, and Gilbert and Sullivan performer George Grossmith. Walter Weedon Grossmith lived from 9 June 1854 to 14 June 1919. Weedon Grossmith received praise for his illustrations in The Diary of a Nobody. Before and during his time with Gilbert and Sullivan, Grossmith was also well-known for delivering his own humorous piano sketches and songs, making him the most well-liked British solo performer of the 1890s. Weedon Grossmith had a background in painting but was unable to support himself in that field, so he turned to acting mostly for financial gain. He wrote several plays and was a successful impresario, and performer.
