The Diary of a Nobody [EPUB ebook] 

This uproarious comic novel is a must-read for lovers of classic British humor. The Diary of a Nobody follows the travails of one Charles Pooter, a middle-class clerk with high-society aspirations and outrageous delusions of grandeur. You’ll laugh out loud at Pooter’s pretentiousness and plenteous faux pas as he attempts to move up the treacherous ladder of social class in nineteenth-century London.
