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 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.

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...
評分 評分我相信,这世上太多事情,太多人与人之间的际遇,是讲求缘分的。 我不得不说的是,中国出版业的编辑,毁掉了不少非常不错的原版书。无论是编辑对原著书的精神的理解,以及拿着低稿费草草了事的翻译们,都是对原著有着某种程度上的曲解。但是,话又说回来,他们也的确是不容易...
評分这是一个问题。 按照鲁迅先生的说法,女人身上的女儿性和母性是天性,妻性是逼出来的。 原书名倒是颇为直白,吃,祈祷,爱,象什么?难道不象嚼着薯片躺在沙发上和男友看电视的小女孩吗? 女人要是不做一个真正意义上的妻子,那就只有回归自然的天性,要么做女孩,要么做母亲。...
評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...
靈修的部分有趣,整體不過是一般女人的復齣之路
评分一個女人自我探索的旅程
评分MAR-APR,2012 在印度買瞭這本原著,看瞭一半之後就看不下去瞭,我想那種關於女性痛苦驕傲的探尋,也許到自己年紀大一些時纔能理解體會。而現在,比起是一位女性,我更認為自己是一個年輕人。無知無畏,尚不知疼痛。
