The best; the original; the seminal Mail on Sunday Bridget Jones's 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 Helen's early journalism * A selection of the original Independent newspaper columns. * Bridget Jones interviews Colin Firth * Later columns on #MeToo; Brexit; and Bridget's lockdown life * A selection of hilarious restaurant reviews featuring the real life inspirations for Jude; Shazzer; Auntie Una; Mum and Daniel Cleaver
