At the end of her bestselling memoir Eat, Pray, Love, Elizabeth Gilbert fell in love with Felipe, a Brazilian-born man of Australian citizenship who’d been living in Indonesia when they met. Resettling in America, the couple swore eternal fidelity to each other, but also swore to never, ever, under any circumstances get legally married. (Both were survivors of previous horrific divorces. Enough said.) But providence intervened one day in the form of the United States government, which—after unexpectedly detaining Felipe at an American border crossing—gave the couple a choice: they could either get married, or Felipe would never be allowed to enter the country again. Having been effectively sentenced to wed, Gilbert tackled her fears of marriage by delving into this topic completely, trying with all her might to discover through historical research, interviews, and much personal reflection what this stubbornly enduring old institution actually is. Told with Gilbert’s trademark wit, intelligence and compassion, Committed attempts to “turn on all the lights” when it comes to matrimony, frankly examining questions of compatibility, infatuation, fidelity, family tradition, social expectations, divorce risks and humbling responsibilities. Gilbert’s memoir is ultimately a clear-eyed celebration of love with all the complexity and consequence that real love, in the real world, actually entails.
Elizabeth Gilbert is an award-winning writer of both fiction and non-fiction. Her short story collection Pilgrims was a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway award, and her novel Stern Men was a New York Times notable book. In 2002, she published The Last American Man, which was a finalist for both the National Book Award and the National Book Critic’s Circle Award. She is best known for her 2006 memoir Eat, Pray, Love, which was published in more than thirty languages.
看瞭評價本來期待不高,讀完覺得真的是不好看。個人故事/內心情感寫的不夠濃,周圍其他人的經曆很少,曆史/社會部分也覺得沒有那麼深
評分重口味,火車伴侶
評分Gilbert上一本書賣得好,改編的電影也馬上就要齣來瞭。這本簡直就是充數的東西。大概隻想著趕緊趁著熱乎勁多賣幾本然後在傢數錢瞭。
評分better than the first one

This is the second book I've read from Liz Gilbert. Apparently this one is not as riveting as her phenomenal best-seller e.p.l. but still it's worth the reading. I was most impressed by the consciousness behind each and every word Gilbert wrote in const...

評分有一类作家,他们的作品质量与其个人经历的痛苦程度成正比,很可惜地, Elizabeth正是其中之一。 从个人角度来说,我真诚祝福她度过了可能是一生中最痛苦的一个时期。 从读者角度来说,我遗憾地估计上一部作品可能就是她这辈子最成功的一本了。 这本书和上一本Eat, Pray, Lov...
