`A witty, honest account of loss and new beginnings, this will be
enjoyed by anyone who's realised "having it all" isn't all it's cracked up
to be'
Annie Proulx
`A writer of incandescent talent'
Meg Ryan, Redbook
'Meg recently read Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. "I loved it," says Meg, whose split from Quaid and subsequent relationship with actor Russell Crowe in 2000 were much publicized. "I could understand her wanting to write the book and her desire to heal. She gets a divorce and decides she's going to do what she wants to do."'
Minnie Driver
'I've just finished reading Eat, Pray, Love, which is amazing. It's not that it's light -- it's incredibly deep and connected and wonderful -- it's just that she writes with such lightness.'
Julia Roberts, Life Magazine
'"My friend Paige and I are reading a book together, Eat, Pray, Love, and we keep calling each other saying "What page are you on?" It's about a woman's sojourn through three countries, and it's fantastic. It's what I'm giving all my girlfriends for Christmas." (Julia is scheduled to play Elizabeth in the film adaptation. She sent her the prayer beads, the ones she wore each day that whole year.)'
Elle Macpherson, Daily Telegraph
'Every woman should read it'
Sophie Dahl
'I adore it and am getting a copy to everyone I know'
It's 3 a.m. and Elizabeth Gilbert is sobbing on the bathroom floor. She's in her thirties, she has a husband, a house, they're trying for a baby - and she doesn't want any of it. A bitter divorce and a turbulent love affair later, she emerges battered and bewildered and realises it is time to pursue her own journey in search of three things she has been missing: pleasure, devotion and balance. So she travels to Rome, where she learns Italian from handsome, brown-eyed identical twins and gains twenty-five pounds, an ashram in India, where she finds that enlightenment entails getting up in the middle of the night to scrub the temple floor, and Bali where a toothless medicine man of indeterminate age offers her a new path to peace: simply sit still and smile. And slowly happiness begins to creep up on her.
