Bridget Jones's Diary

Description

The multi-million copy Number One Bestseller A dazzlingly urban satire on modern relationships? An ironic, tragic insight into the demise of the nuclear family? Or the confused ramblings of a pissed thirty-something? Helen Fielding's first Bridget Jones novel, Bridget Jones's Diary, sparked a phenomenon that has seen three books, newspaper columns and the smash-hit film series Bridget Jones' Diary, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason and Bridget Jones's Baby.

She has written five novels, Cause Celeb (1994), Bridget Jones's Diary (1996), Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2000), Olivia Joules and the Overactive Imagination (2003) and Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy (2013). She also co-wrote the screenplays for the movies of Bridget Jones's Diary and The Edge of Reason. She now works full-time as a novelist and screenwriter and lives in London and Los Angeles.
