<p><strong>With an Introduction and Notes by Michael Irwin, Professor of English Literature, University of Kent at Canterbury.</strong></p>
<p><em>The Diary of a Nobody</em> is so unassuming a work that even its author, George Grossmith, seemed unaware that he had produced a masterpiece. For more than a century this wonderfully comic portrayal of suburban life and values has remained in print, a source of delight to generations of readers, and a major literary influence, much imitated but never equalled.</p>
<p>If you don't recognise yourself at some point in <em>The Diary</em> you are probably less than human. If you can read it without laughing aloud you have no sense of humour.</p>
