Bridget Jones's Diary

«Bridget Jones's Diary» — a cult novel by Helen Fielding. Its adaptation became a classic of cinema, starring Renée Zellweger, Hugh Grant, and Colin Firth. It is impossible not to love Bridget Jones. Her story is a stunningly ironic and... candid testament to the complicated yet vibrant life of thirty-something inhabitants of a metropolis. The pursuit of self-improvement, the choice between single life fun and responsibilities, parental pressure «When are you getting married?», and setbacks at work — these are problems familiar to many. Bridget humorously describes daily life in her diary, counting glasses of wine, calories, and cigarettes on its pages. And in between, she falls in love and remarkably gets into humorous situations. The novel won the «Best Book of the Year» award in the UK and ranked 75th in the BBC's list of the 200 best books.
