Bridget Jones's Diary

The multi-million bestseller with a foreword by Caitlin Moran. A sparkling urban satire about modern relationships? An ironic, tragic insight into the decline of the nuclear family? Or the tangled thoughts of a frustrated thirty-something? As Bridget documents her struggles through the social minefield of her thirties and tries to weigh the eternal question (Daniel Cleaver or Mark Darcy?), she turns to four indispensable friends for support: Shazzer, Jude, Tom, and a bottle of Chardonnay. Welcome to Bridget's first diary: relentlessly funny, endlessly touching, and utterly addictive. Bridget Jones's Diary was first published in 1996 and has been praised by critics from Salman Rushdie to Jilly Cooper. As a number-one bestseller, Helen Fielding's book has sold over fifteen million copies worldwide and was adapted into an Academy Award-nominated film series starring Renee Zellweger, Colin Firth, and Hugh Grant. Following Bridget Jones's Diary are Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason and Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy.
