Features & Highlights
- At the age of thirty one, Gilbert moved with her husband to the suburbs of New York and began trying to get pregnant, only to realize that she wanted neither a child nor a husband. Three years later, after a protracted divorce, she embarked on a yearlong trip of recovery, with three main stops: Rome, for pleasure (mostly gustatory, with a special emphasis on gelato); an ashram outside of Mumbai, for spiritual searching; and Bali, for balancing. These destinations are all on the beaten track, but Gilbert s exuberance and her self-deprecating humor enliven the proceedings: recalling the first time she attempted to speak directly to God, she says, It was all I could do to stop myself from saying, Ive always been a Gilbert s prose is fueled by a mix of intelligence, wit and colloquial exuberance that is close to irresistible. The New York Times Book Review A meditation on love in its many forms ove of food, language, humanity, God.
