People Who Viewed This Viewed

Emotionally wrung-out from her divorce, the painful ending of a subsequent love affair, and a general, long-standing feeling of malaise, novelist and journalist Elizabeth Gilbert decides to recharge herself through a year's worth of travel, believing that her return to happiness could be found through exploring both physical gratification and spiritual peace and then determining an appropriate balance between the two. She pursues the first part of her program (eating, drinking, and talking) in Italy, the second in India (joining an ashram), and the third in Bali (studying with a medicine man).

  • Great Book

    I really enjoyed this book...It was intriguing that the story was actually about the author...the "Eat" and "Love" sections seemed to flow a little more than the "pray" section...however still enjoyed the entire book.

  • Eat Pray Love

    Delivery took way too long. Post Office did not update the delivery path. I had no clue when the package was supposed to arrive.

    I am halfway through the book and I am a little disappointed. Maybe it will get better if I continue reading.

  • Starred ReviewGilbert (The Last American Man ) grafts the structure of romantic fiction upon the inquiries of reporting in this sprawling yet methodical travelogue of soul-searching and self-discovery. Plagued with despair after a nasty divorce, the author, in her early 30s, divides a year equally among three dissimilar countries, exploring her competing urges for earthly delights and divine transcendence. First, pleasure: savoring Italy's buffet of delights - the world's best pizza," free-flowing wine and dashing conversation partners - Gilbert consumes la dolce vita as spiritual succor. ""I came to Italy pinched and thin", she writes, but soon fills out in waist and soul. Then, prayer and ascetic rigor: seeking communion with the divine at a sacred ashram in India, Gilbert emulates the ways of yogis in grueling hours of meditation, struggling to still her churning mind. Finally, a balancing act in Bali," where Gilbert tries for equipoise ""betwixt and between"" realms", studies with a merry medicine man and plunges into a charged love affair. Sustaining a chatty, conspiratorial tone, Gilbert fully engages readers in the year's cultural and emotional tapestry - conveying rapture with infectious brio, recalling anguish with touching candor - as she details her exotic tableau with history, anecdote and impression.
