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.

读后感
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...
评分曾经对《一辈子做女孩》这本书满含期待，因为它的宣传说希拉里和李银河都推荐了这本书。李银河在她的博客中写道： 前段时间我看了美国作家伊丽莎白•吉尔伯特的《一辈子做女孩》。一个知识女性，为了寻找自己内心的平衡和幸福，抛开家庭去独自旅行的故事。她离了婚，又和情人...
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The book’s Chinese edition--一辈子做女孩 did not grab my interest when I heard it for the first time. Because I guess it might be the kind of book which try it’s best to convince a girl of some so called principles to behave more like a girl. Much to my s...
评分说到睡前读物，《Eat pray love》绝对是极好的选择。边读就边想，一定要和你们分享这本书，但看到一半时，就送给了朋友。等到卓越再送书来，半个月已经过去了。可惜的是，朋友却无心看这本书。不禁感叹：有心栽花，花不开。我以为可以缓解她纠结许久的心事，却不料并无裨益。 ...

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8 weeks. Done
评分饭祷爱除了有点小啰嗦之外还是蛮治愈系的
评分在很长的一段时间里缓慢地一字一句读完。不是说它有多好，但它陪伴了我一段很特殊很艰难的日子。尤其是有些struggle重合的地方，她在阐述解救自己的语言里实际上也解救了我。
评分哪个选择才是最好的？
