Bridget Jones's Diary (And Other Writing)
Bridget Jones's Diary (And Other Writing): 25th Anniversary Edition | Helen Fielding
2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
The best, the original, the seminal Mail on Sunday Bridget Joness Diary turns 25 this year. Winner of the 1997 British Book of the Year, and named by the Guardian as one of the ten books which best defines the 20th Century, the book has gone on to become a multi-million copy selling international phenomenon, spawning three blockbuster movies, a whole new literary genre, a lexicon of smug marrieds, singletons, emotional f***wittage and mummy pants, and the familiar cry of I am Bridget Jones. This special bumper anniversary compendium also features an introduction and commentary from Helen Fielding, and over 100 pages of rare material taken from 25 years of her writing, including: * Extracts from Helens early journalism * A selection of the original Independent newspaper columns. * Bridget Jones interviews Colin Firth * Later columns on #MeToo, Brexit, and Bridgets lockdown life * A selection of hilarious restaurant reviews featuring the real life inspirations for Jude, Shazzer, Auntie Una, Mum and Daniel Cleaver

Very good. Even though this is a reread for me it still makes me laugh out loud. At this point in my life I can relate to her life struggles especially the dating struggles. Love how this edition has the back story of Bridget Jones and also how Bridget Jones has coped with Brexit and the coronavirus lockdown. Adds another layer to her story.
