Description

<p><b>Shortlisted for the Costa First Novel Award 2019, </b><b><i>Diary of a Somebody</i> is</b><b> a unique mix of poetry and diary by the unofficial Poet Laureate of Twitter, the enigmatic Brian Bilston.</b><br><br><b>'If you like a) laughing or b) words which rhyme with each other, you will love Brian Bilston' - Richard Osman, author of <i>The Thursday Murder Club</i></b><br><br><b>‘Nobody must find out about this unique gem, because I’m giving it to EVERYONE, and I want to appear clever and discerning.’ – Dawn French</b><br><br>It’s January 1st and Brian Bilston’s life needs to change. His ex-wife has taken up with a new man, a motivational speaker and marketing guru to boot; he seems to constantly disappoint his long-suffering son; and at work he is drowning in a sea of spreadsheets and management jargon.<br><br>Brian's resolution is to write a poem every day; poetry will be his salvation. But there is an obstacle to his happiness in the form of Toby Salt, his arch nemesis in the Poetry Group and rival suitor to Liz, Brian’s new poetic inspiration. When Toby goes missing, Brian is the number one suspect.<br><br><b>Part tender love story, part suburban murder mystery, part scathing description of a wasted life, and interspersed with some of the funniest poems about the mundane and the profound, <i>Diary of a Somebody</i> is a unique, original and hilarious novel.</b><br><br><b>‘Glorious. I will be astonished if I read a more original, more inventive or funnier novel this year.’ – Adam Kay, author of <i>This is Going to Hurt.</i></b></p>
