Book description
The Wilderness Years are over. But not for long. At the end of Bridget
Jones's Diary, Bridget hiccuped off into the sunset with
man-of-her-dreams Mark Darcy. Now, in The Edge of Reason, she discovers
what it is like when you have the man of your dreams actually in your
flat and he hasn't done the washing-up, not just the whole of this week,
but ever. Lurching through a morass of self-help-book theories and mad
advice from Jude and Shazzer, struggling with a boyfriend-stealing
ex-friend with thighs like a baby giraffe, an 8ft hole in the
living-room wall, a mother obsessed with boiled-egg peelers, and a
builder obsessed with large reservoir fish, Bridget embarks on a
spiritual epiphany. Bridget is back. V. g. Helen Fielding was born
in Yorkshire. She worked for many years in London as a newspaper and TV
journalist, travelling as wildly and as often as possibly to Africa,
India and Central America. She is the author of four novels:
Cause Celeb
(1994), Bridget Jones's Diary
(1996), Bridget Jones:The Edge of Reason
(2000) and Olivia Joules and the Overactive Imagination
(2003), and co-wrote the screenplays for the movie of Bridget Jones's Diary
and the sequel based on The Edge of Reason
. She now works full-time as a novelist and screenwriter and lives in
London and Los Angeles.
