Elizabeth M. Gilbert (born July 18, 1969) is an American novelist, essayist, short story writer, biographer, and memoirist. She is most known for her 2006 memoirs, Eat, Pray, Love, which as of December 2010, has spent 199 weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list, and was also made into a film by the same name in 2010.
At 32 years old, Elizabeth Gilbert was educated, had a home, a husband, and a successful career as a writer. However, she was unhappy in her marriage and often spent the night crying on her bathroom floor. After separating from her husband and initiating a divorce, which he contested, she embarked on a rebound relationship which continued for some time but did not work out, leaving her devastated and alone.
Afterwards, while writing an article on yoga vacations in Bali, Gilbert met a ninth-generation medicine man who told her she would one day come back and study with him. After finalizing her difficult divorce, Gilbert spent the next year traveling around the world. The trip was paid for in advance with a book deal from the publisher.
She spent four months in Italy, eating and enjoying life ("Eat"). She spent four months in India, finding her spirituality ("Pray"). She ended the year in Bali, Indonesia, looking for "balance" of the two and found love ("Love") in the form of a dashing Brazilian factory owner.
对于价值观混乱无比的我来说,要用一个固定的标准来评价一些东西是一件十分困难的事情,所以我习惯了在评价物品时找一些参照物。 例如:当我在享受假期旅行时,会觉得一本差不多30块的书只不过是一天的小费而已;而当我开始迷恋芝士蛋糕时,这本书可就相当于我2块芝士蛋糕;很...
评分This is not a classic, or perhaps not of much literary value at all, but this is a book that has truly spoken to me when I was reading it. I laughed with her in Italy, meditated with her in India and liberated with her in Indonesia. It's definitely a book t...

评分The first time I read this book dates back to 2012, when I was still in the United States, I borrowed it from the library but it was a busy time so I only finished about one-third of the book and returned it. However, it is so amazing and interesting that I...
做女人真尼玛累= =
评分不能免俗之 -- 过了八年,我终于把这书给看了。
评分刚开始读的时候对她在意大利生活的描写很有感触,因为那时也是刚刚来到一个新的语言环境,作者对于细节,心理的描写很赞,这部分可以打4分,后来印度的部分,不是很喜欢,可能是因为自己不信教,觉得有些地方很扯。据说拍成电影了,可惜在德国也没法下载……因为中间好多不认识的单词直接跳过去了,也不知道是否漏掉太多情节
评分第一次看完整本英文小说,真惭愧。竟然对听力又很大提高=。=可惜没做任何摘抄,抽时间再翻一遍~对英文读物已然没有畏惧感,可以开始开垦四本冰火了~
评分硬着头皮看完的。。
