The Diary of a Nobody by George & Weedon Grossmith, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. First serialised in Punch and published as a book in 1892, The Diary of a Nobody is the comic record of Charles Pooter, a London clerk of boundless self-importance, his patient wife Carrie and their wayward son Lupin. From social disasters to misjudged jokes, every small humiliation at The Laurels, Holloway, is lovingly recorded. One of the funniest books in English.
About this leather-bound edition
We cover every book in genuine leather by hand, finishing the spine with gold-tone foil titling and decorative tooling in the tradition of fine library bindings. Because each copy is made individually, small variations in leather grain and colour are a natural sign of handwork.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
