Publisher's Note
Disillusioned with London's glittering celebrity world following her breakup with her hotshot TV presenter boyfriend, twentysomething Rosie Richardson escapes to a refugee camp in the African desert, where she is forced to draw on her media savvy to aid the starving victims of a devastating famine. By the author of Bridget Jones's Diary.
Industry reviews
"This semi-earnest 1994 novel precedes the author's bestsellers...and both her rough promise and growing pains are much in evidence." New York Times - Janet Maslin (01/29/2001) "While Ms. Fielding gives Rosie a little more backbone and a few more IQ points than she gave Bridget, the biting wit readers love so much in the 'Bridget Jones' books is missing. CAUSE CELEB offers a bit of insight into the world of A-list London and the pseudo-politics of some of its stars." Wall Street Journal - Kate Flatley (02/02/2001) "Fielding and famine? It seems a precarious combination, but the surprise of this shrewd novel is that the author keeps vaulting over the high bars she sets for herself. By the book's end, she has managed to pull off both an edgy political satire and a satisfying romantic comedy..." San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - Sarah Coleman (02/04/2001) "An impressive novel, CAUSE CELEB lacks the hooting-out-loud humor of BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY. But it is still a terrific, witty story." USA Today - Deirdre Donahue (02/08/2001) "Fielding infuses this commentary on celebrity and charity...with the same dry wit that made her Bridget books so enjoyable." Houston Chronicle - Pamela Mitchell (02/09/2001) "All of the book's sidesplittingly funny scenes--celebrities complaining about an African airline's menu, the actress overwrought about her frizzy hair when she arrives for a TV spot in the camps--are exquisitely balanced against more somber episodes, such as an encounter with the dying ex-girlfriend of one of Rosie's African friends. Even the frizzy-haired actress deserves, and earns, our compassion." Washington Post - Abby Frucht (03/01/2001) "[A] deft, subtle, admirable, pleasurable book." Atlantic Monthly - Barbara Wallraff (03/20/2001)

Helen Fielding's highly acclaimed first novel brings all the insight and charm of the Bridget Jones novels to a brilliantly witty, thought-provoking take on today's woman-and today's world. Cause Celeb-the critically acclaimed debut novel from a writer with a boundless grasp of the existential and the uproarious-has just landed in America. Deftly skewering the world of celebrity fundraising, Fielding has created an alternately comic and moving satire that straddles the glitter of media London and the horrors of an African refugee crisis. Rosie Richardson, a twenty-something literary puffette is in a totally nonfunctional relationship with an unevolved but irresistible adult male-a hotshot TV presenter who plunges her into the glitzy, bitchy inane lifestyle of London's It people. Disillusioned with the celebrity world, Rosie escapes to run a refugee camp in the African desert. When famine strikes and a massive refugee influx heads for the camp, governments and agencies drag their heels. Bringing her former media savvy to the fore, realizing the only way to get food out fast is to bring celebrities first, Rosie returns to the life and man she fled to organize a star- studded emergency appeal from famine-racked Africa. Seamlessly bridging cataclysm and farce through the insights of a modern-day everywoman, Cause Celeb crackles with insight into fame, passion, and altruism in our time.
