About This Book
One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and
Indonesia
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.

Angeles Times
An engaging, intelligent, and highly entertaining memoir. -- Time
Gilbert’s prose is fueled by a mix of intelligence, wit and colloquial
exuberance that is close to irresistible. -- The New York Times Book

Orlean and Frances Mayes. -- Entertainment Weekly

insight. -- Anne Lamott
