This beautifully written, heartfelt memoir touched a nerve among both readers and reviewers. Elizabeth Gilbert tells how she made the difficult choice to leave behind all the trappings of modern American success (marriage, house in the country, career) and find, instead, what she truly wanted from life. Setting out for a year to study three different aspects of her nature amid three different cultures, Gilbert explored the art of pleasure in Italy and the art of devotion in India, and then a balance between the two on the Indonesian island of Bali. By turns rapturous and rueful, this wise and funny author (whom Booklist calls "Anne Lamott’s hip, yoga- practicing, footloose younger sister") is poised to garner yet more adoring fans.
Elizabeth Gilbert is the author of a story collection, Pilgrims (a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award), a novel, Stern Men, and, most recently, The Last American Man, a finalist for the National Book Award in Nonfiction and the National Book Critics Circle Award. As a journalist, she wrote for GQ for five years and was nominated three times for the National Magazine Award.

评分还没看完,是被她开头的无助描写吸引的。同事看见书上的一句话“不想结婚”,而把本书界定为会教坏我的书,有些冤枉了
评分这是一个问题。 按照鲁迅先生的说法,女人身上的女儿性和母性是天性,妻性是逼出来的。 原书名倒是颇为直白,吃,祈祷,爱,象什么?难道不象嚼着薯片躺在沙发上和男友看电视的小女孩吗? 女人要是不做一个真正意义上的妻子,那就只有回归自然的天性,要么做女孩,要么做母亲。...
评分Before I got the book, I had heard so much about the author, about how great the book is, and about how people's lives changed because of it. Even Oprah invited Elizabeth Gilbert to her show twice! I am always very alert to those "life-changing" books,e...
