Pauline Mole

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pauline Monica Mole, neé Sugden is mother of Adrian Mole, main character in the books of Sue Townsend.

Pauline was born 14 September 1944. Her parents are people who believe in God, and Pauline wanted to escape from that life. She married to George Mole and from her parents' farm moved to Ashby-de-la-Zouch. When she was 22, she gave a birth to Adrian Albert Mole, who is her and George's first child. When she gave a birth to Rosie, she wanted to give her the name 'Cristabell'. But, she decided on 'Rosie Germaine' - Rosie because it's pretty and modern, and Germaine because of Germaine Greer.

Pauline had a relationship with Ivan Braithwaite but she returned to George after Ivan's death. In Adrian Mole and the Weapons of Mass Destruction, she and George are trying to rebuild an old house to their new home. Mysterious guy, 'the Animal' is helping them.
