	Sue Townsend - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Susan Lillian "Sue" Townsend (born April 2, 1946) is the author of the Adrian Mole series of books (Mole claims that she stole the copyright from him in 1981).
		Sue went to Glen Hills Primary school where the school secretary was named 'Mrs Claricotes' - as is the school secretary in the books.
		At the time of writing the first Mole book, Sue Townsend was living on the Saffron Lane Estate, a stone's-throw away from the house in which Joe Orton was brought up.

	Sue Townsend Biography \| Authors and Artists for Young Adults
		Sue Townsend, who got her start as a writer for the theater, penned a series of fictional diaries of a self-obsessed teenager that critics deemed one of the literary phenomena of the 1980s.
		Townsend began her writing career as a playwright, after spending many years in menial jobs to support herself and her four children.
		Townsend's sharply humorous plays and stories demonstrate that she is "a satirist of the first order," according to Emily Melton in a Booklist review of Adrian Mole: The Lost Years.

	A comprehensive study of the non-dramatic work of Sue Townsend. (Jurgen Willems)
		Townsend for instance gratefully uses Adrian's forgery of the self to create humour and to illustrate a certain aspect of Adrian's nature.
		Townsend in some cases subtly indicates that her protagonist only pretends to read the book he names.
		Since The Secret Diary was Townsend's first non-dramatic literary attempt it is possible that she chose to write in the diary form especially because of this attractive advantage.

	A comprehensive study of the non-dramatic work of Sue Townsend. (Jurgen Willems)
		The fact that Townsend became rather wealthy notwithstanding the fact that she left school prematurely is, in a way, also reflected in one of her novels.
		A last fact from Townsend's life that we find incorporated in her work and which I would like to draw attention to is the smallness of estate houses.
		There may be still more examples of correspondences between Townsend's life and the life presented in her novels but the above examples should suffice to prove that Sue Townsend does draw heavily on personal experiences and habits in the conception of her novels.

		Townsend even showed considerable prescience in some of her storylines; for example, forseeing the breakdown of the marriage between Charles and Diana.
		Sue Townsend's humourous style, as seen in Adrian Mole, is retained and this book achieves the almost unachievable in actually being more funny than Mole.
		Sue Townsend's Adrian Mole books are justifiably hugely popular, but her other work shouldn't be ignored, especially this hugely funny novel.

		In Townsend's latest British farce (after 1993's The Queen and I, which put the British royal family in public housing, to hilarious effect), the prime minister, known by much of his public as "that pratt Edward Clare," sets out to get in touch with the masses.
		Sue Townsend's wit and her sharp observations of English life were acerbic, but not without pity or hope.
		Thus Sue Townsend's concept of forcing her protagonist, Edward Clare, to meet the common man, totally unprotected, had considerable promise.

		Townsend's hapless nerd (The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole) returns to complete his lengthy and awkward passage from zit-ridden adolescence to angst-ridden manhood.
		Luckily, Townsend (author also of the deft satire, The Queen and I) eventually seems to realize this too, and in the latter portions of the book adds a few new elements-a real girlfriend or two, sojourns in London, Moscow and Greece, a few unexpected career moves-to her hero's life.
		YA?In this sequel to The Adrian Mole Diaries (Grove, 1986; o.p.), Townsend continues her hero's humorous adventures into adulthood, beginning when he is 18 and ending when he is 23.

		I'm not sure if Sue Townsend meant to make a statement about the detachment of politicians but irrespective of this the book is very enjoyable and pretty funny in parts too.
		The book does have one or two poignant moments which are quite nice, but these are so thin on the ground and the juvenile comedy laid on so thick that these are quite lost.
		Unfortunately, Townsend's characters are so remote from the real figures upon which they're based that the book never reaches the sharp and witty social commentary of my expectations.
