AS SEEN IN THE TIMES

Friday January 2nd
I felt rotten today. It''s my mother''s fault for singing ''My Way'' at two o''clock in the morning at the top of the stairs. Just my luck to have a mother like her. There is a chance my parents could be alcoholics. Next year I could be in a children''s home.
Meet Adrian Mole, a hapless teenager providing an unabashed, pimples-and-all glimpse into adolescent life as he writes candidly about the dog, his parents'' marital troubles and life as a tortured poet and ''misunderstood intellectual.''
Forty years after it first appeared, Sue Townsend''s comic masterpiece continues to be rediscovered by new generations of readers.
