The Diary of a Nobody
Charles Pooter, a City clerk of small means, starts a diary on moving into The Laurels in Holloway, certain that his doings are worth the record. Tradesmen slight him, his son Lupin embarrasses him, his jokes land nowhere, and he sets it all down in perfect good faith. The comedy of small dignity.
