In my opinion this one of the best
reading book which i´ve read in all my academic life, this book is very
different than other books you can read and is easier to read . The topics are
really realistic and the show a good perspective of the diary life and problems
of a middle class in Thatcher period. You can have a really good follow of
Adrian´s life and all his feelings of all type( familiar, personal about his
sexuality…) it´s very interesting and funny.
