'I have decided to keep a full journal, in the hope that my life will perhaps seem more interesting when it is written down.' Adrian Mole' This book is based on extracts from the author's 1972 Letts' Schoolboys Diary and is volume 2 of An Edinburgh Trilogy of the years 1971-1973. It provides a vivid portrait of the life of a 15 year old growing up in Scotland's capital city. It's a pivotal year for 'Retep' as he leaves Boroughmuir School to go out to work in a dead end office job. However, amongst the Dickensian ennui, athletics offers a small hint of light and hope for the future.
