About this listen

Cause Celeb is the debut novel from Helen Fielding, the bestselling author of Bridget Jones’s Diary.

Disillusioned by her glitzy life in London and her desirable but cruel TV-presenter boyfriend, Rosie Richardson chucks it all in and spends four years running a refugee camp in Africa. Then famine strikes in a nearby province and an influx of starving refugees threatens to overwhelm the camp. Frustrated by the cautious response of the aid agencies, Rosie decides on a drastic short-term solution. She returns to London, breaks back into the celebrity circuit and brings the celebs out to Africa for a star-studded TV emergency appeal.

Critic reviews

A champion first novel . . . what makes it such a pleasure to read is its variety of tone: flip, flirtatious, serious, mocking and moving . . . get hold of a copy of this book.
A terrific achievement . . . The camp scenes are as moving and funny as the original M*A*S*H; she sends up the self-important “mediacracy” with an insider’s wit, and it’s written at a romping pace with a cliff-hanger finish.
Sharp, gutsy and refreshing.
Thoughtful, ironic and completely gripping. (Harry Enfield)
A brilliantly funny satire.

I was told a long while ago don't bother with this book it's not as good as her other books (Bridget Jones) so I left it alone, then recently I saw it in an audible sale and I thought why not I can always send it back. I can't believe I have not read this book sooner, it's a really good book, it's just different. Don't expect Bridget Jones and you will enjoy the book even more.

I have never left a negative review on audible in the 8 or so years I've been with them. But this book really disappointed BUT it's because it isn't the full book!!
I thought I'd bought the full, original book, but no, it's an abridged version, and extremely abridged version. there is loads missing and it completely ruined the story for me. I had the physical book years ago so thought I'd enjoy this. If you can, I'd recommend reading the book as much os missing here.

EXTREMELY abridged version!
