 | | W(ilhelm) N(ero) P(ilate) Barbellion was the (additional info and facts about nom-de-plume) nom-de-plume of Bruce Frederick Cummings (September 7, 1889 - October 22, 1919), an English diarist who was responsible for what is usually considered one of the greatest diaries of all time, The Journal of a Disappointed Man. |
 | | His diaries up to the winter of 1917, which he revised and corrected prior to publication, were eventually published in March 1919 under the title The Journal of a Disappointed Man. |
 | | An editor's note at the very end of the book claims Barbellion died on December 31 1917, but Cummings in fact lived for nearly two more years. |
