Mr Pooter is a man of modest ambition, content with his clerkly lot. So why is he always in trouble with disagreeable tradesmen, impudent young clerks and wayward friends? And what is he to do about his son Lupin's distinctly unsuitable choice of a bride? However hard he tries, life piles its little mishaps on his head - but he's not about to give up. The bumbling, absurd, yet ultimately endearing Mr Pooter is one of the great comic creations of English literature. This sharp, hilarious satire of suburban values has lost none of its sparkle one hundred years on and is the forerunner for classic TV sitcoms such as The Rise and Fall of Reginald Perrin and One Foot in the Grave.
