Adrian is a familiar literary figure for many readers of a certain age. This is because he's very easy to sympathise with. A lot of his struggles, his questions and his experiences are ones we all face in our daily lives. Throughout the Adrian Mole series we have journeyed with him as he went through puberty, reached his adulthood, got himself into all sorts of trouble but always made it through, eventually.

"Adrian Mole and the Weapons of Mass Destruction" is written in the distinct style of the other novels. It's written in the form of a diary, overflowing with the comic talent Sue Townsend is known for.

Adrian is working in a book shop. He's just bought a place, is struggling with his financial affairs, and his romantic life is as chaotic as ever. In his spare time, he's writing letters to Tony Blair, hoping the Prime Minister will assist him in his battle with the travel agency, and he's offering his advice to celebrities. He's got himself entangled with a rather scary lady called Marigold. It doesn't help that he actually finds himself attracted to Marigold's sister, Daisy...

And through it all, the world is changing. And so are Adrian's views on the world, and many things he used to have a solid faith in.
