UPDATE : Bridget Jones again A tidal wave of chick lit books has rolled out of Britain in the wake of the huge success of Bridget Jones's Dairy. Jones herself has been cloned many times but the latest look alike takes a different tack: a working mother crazed by her double life. Allison Pearson's I Don't Know How She Does It: The Life of Kate Reddy, Working Mother (Arthur A Knopf) has a heroine who is older, heavier, sleep deprived, guilty. Reddy is a fund manager, a wife and has two small children. It hardly needs saying that Reddy is Bridget Jones 10 years on. Like, Bridget..., Pearson's novel began life as a series of columns in the Daily Telegraph, where it offered a supposed humorous portrait of the difficulties facing a working mother. Once 'novelized', both became immediate best sellers, though the name Kate Reddy is not on everyone's lips the way Bridget Jones was five years ago. Like her predecessor, Kate is bound for the screen (a USD2 million deal with Miramax). And the sole engine of success, for both, is the heroine herself: she's always the hook, in the column, in the novel, in the film.
