“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

“An engaging, intelligent, and highly entertaining memoir.”  —Time

“A meditation on love in its many forms—love of food, language, humanity, God, and most meaningful for Gilbert, love of self.”  —Los Angeles Times

“This insightful, funny account of her travels reads like a mix of Susan Orlean and Frances Mayes.”  —Entertainment Weekly

“This is a wonderful book, brilliant and personal, rich in spiritual insight.”  —Anne Lamott 伊丽莎白•吉尔伯特30岁以后发现自己既不想要小孩，也不想要丈夫。在令人疲惫的婚姻结束之后，作者在意大利、印度、印尼三个不同国度之间寻找自己——到意大利品尝美食，尽享感官的满足，在比萨与美酒的陪伴下，灵魂就此再生；在印度，与瑜伽士的接触，洗涤了她混乱的身心；巴厘岛上，她寻得了身心的平衡。在这一整年的追寻快乐与虔诚之间的平衡中，她终于发现：“拯救我的人，并非王子，而是我自己操控我，拯救我”。

At 32 years old, Elizabeth Gilbert was educated, had a home, a husband, and a successful career as a writer. She was, however, unhappy in her marriage and initiated a divorce. She then embarked on a rebound relationship that did not work out, leaving her devastated and alone. After finalizing her difficult divorce, she spent the next year traveling the world. She spent four months in Italy, eating and enjoying life (“Eat”). She spent three months in India, finding her spirituality (“Pray”). She ended the year in Bali, Indonesia, looking for “balance” of the two and fell in love with a Brazilian businessman (“Love”).
