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.
Elizabeth Gilbert is the author of a story collection, Pilgrims (a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award); a novel, Stern Men; and The Last American Man (a finalist for the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award).
The first time I read this book dates back to 2012, when I was still in the United States, I borrowed it from the library but it was a busy time so I only finished about one-third of the book and returned it. However, it is so amazing and interesting that I...
评分补充一下本书作者在TED的演讲,这个演讲在TED近千个演讲中排名前三(基于观众“Favorite”投票),尤其后半部分讲得极好,Elizabeth是很有慧根的那种人,这在她的文字和演讲里多有体现,下面是上周刚翻好的中文字幕版本: http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/chi_hans/elizabeth_gilb...
评分年纪大到一定程度,就会对人力产生极端无助的感觉。事实上作为个人命运,这完全不是主观、客观、先天际遇或个人努力能够达成的顺理成章,也不是有付出就一定有收获。您在这边厢“鞠躬敬瘁死而后已”,人家那边厢已经“谈笑间樯橹灰飞烟灭”,到最后怎么不可能产生对命运的敬畏...
评分放下:当你一觉醒来,感觉不再有热情,不再有热度,不再有火花,不再有信仰,那么,勇敢地出发吧。 静默:不要用眼睛看世界,用心去看,你会更接近心中的神明。 平衡:去爱、去相信,追寻内心的答案,当双脚再次触碰到大地,你会走得真实而坚定。
评分迄今为止,对这本书最不满意的就是中文译名,一辈子做女孩。如果有的时候对书的名字拿捏的不是很准的话,不如直接按字面翻译,可能结果要好一些。不过,除了名字之外,其他整本书的翻译都很灵,看起来很舒服。 我想,书的作者不仅仅是想要女孩般干净,年轻,宁静的心态,更是...
小故事可以反复看好几遍。是个非常做的女人。不过作者最后是个lesbian,这下也可以解释很多问题了????
评分Sometimes to lose balance for love is part of living balanced life.
评分一个有慧根的女人,在身体和心灵的旅途中慢慢找回自己,把自己扶起。适合遭遇着痛苦的女性读一读,跟着作者一起,重拾生活,真诚地接受自己的一切不美好,也珍视自己的一切美好!
