Eat Pray Love

One of the most iconic beloved and bestselling books of our time.. 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.
