A Hilarious and Heartwarming Journey into Middle Age

Following Adrian's misadventures through adolescence and young adulthood, this novel explores the trials and tribulations of middle age with characteristic wit and charm.

A Synopsis

Now in his early fifties, Adrian finds himself grappling with a myriad of challenges. His marriage to Hazel is strained, his teenage son Dave is an endless source of exasperation, and his once-promising career as a journalist has hit a roadblock. And if that weren't enough, Adrian is experiencing a series of embarrassing and uncomfortable physical ailments that come with aging.

But Adrian, ever the optimist, refuses to let life get him down. With his trademark blend of self-deprecation and resilience, he navigates the choppy waters of middle age, searching for meaning and connection in a world that seems to be slipping away.
