A celebrated writer’s irresistible, candid, and eloquent account of her pursuit of worldly pleasure, spiritual devotion, and what she really wanted out of life
Around the time Elizabeth Gilbert turned thirty, she went through an early-onslaught midlife crisis. She had everything an educated, ambitious American woman was supposed to want—a husband, a house, a successful career. But instead of feeling happy and fulfilled, she was consumed with panic, grief, and confusion. She went through a divorce, a crushing depression, another failed love, and the eradication of everything she ever thought she was supposed to be.
To recover from all this, Gilbert took a radical step. In order to give herself the time and space to find out who she really was and what she really wanted, she got rid of her belongings, quit her job, and undertook a yearlong journey around the world—all alone. Eat, Pray, Love is the absorbing chronicle of that year. Her aim was to visit three places where she could examine one aspect of her own nature set against the backdrop of a culture that has traditionally done that one thing very well. In Rome, she studied the art of pleasure, learning to speak Italian and gaining the twenty-three happiest pounds of her life. India was for the art of devotion, and with the help of a native guru and a surprisingly wise cowboy from Texas, she embarked on four uninterrupted months of spiritual exploration. In Bali, she studied the art of balance between worldly enjoyment and divine transcendence. She became the pupil of an elderly medicine man and also fell in love the best way—unexpectedly.
An intensely articulate and moving memoir of self-discovery, Eat, Pray, Love is about what can happen when you claim responsibility for your own contentment and stop trying to live in imitation of society’s ideals. It is certain to touch anyone who has ever woken up to the unrelenting need for change.
Elizabeth Gilbert is the author of a story collection, Pilgrims (a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award), a novel, Stern Men, and, most recently, The Last American Man, a finalist for the National Book Award in Nonfiction and the National Book Critics Circle Award. As a journalist, she wrote for GQ for five years and was nominated three times for the National Magazine Award.
第一次完成英文著作阅读,整体感觉还比较流畅,可能是比较生活易懂,而且之前看过电影版。继续努力,往更广更深处发展
评分Until I've finished 90% of the book then i realized how the name of the book came out. It represents the theme of the three places of the whole year donation of herself, Italy for eating, India for praying, and Indonesia for love. Loved it. Maybe it's part of fate that you can find the loved one in your life, and before that, love yourself
评分磨叽
评分磨叽
评分看过的那些原版书里面,有难到需要不时看译文的,也有简单到几乎不用查生词的。《饭祷爱》的作者文笔相当好,有长句也有短句,有口语也有书面体,有历史人文也有旅游美食,生词量适中,非常适合英语阅读。
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...
评分当内心真的被触动,每个人都会有强烈的反应,对我来说是一种全身发麻,有一簇颤抖遍布于皮肤下。在听到斯美塔那的《伏尔塔瓦河》的主题乐曲时,在听到拉二的高潮部分时,在读到这本书最后的Attraversiamo的时候,明显感觉到从心底直涌上眼眶的那股想要流泪的冲动。 去年十月看...
评分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Before I got the book, I had heard so much about the author, about how great the book is, and about how people's lives changed because of it. Even Oprah invited Elizabeth Gilbert to her show twice! I am always very alert to those "life-changing" books,e...
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...
