Committed by Elizabeth Gilbert
At the end of Eat, Pray, Love Elizabeth Gilbert fell in love with Felipe, a Brazilian-born Australian citizen. Resettling in America, they swore eternal fidelity, but also (each a survivor of a divorce Enough said) swore never, ever, to get married. But when providence intervened in the form of the US government, they faced a stark choice: either marry, or Felipe could never return to the US. Effectively sentenced to wed, Gilbert delved into the subject of marriage and, debunking myths, unthreading fears, celebrating love, suggests that sometimes even the most romantic of souls must trade in amorous fantasies for the humbling responsibility of adulthood.
'A writer of incandescent talent' Annie Proulx Praise for Eat, Pray, Love: 'A word-of-mouth bestseller. As funny as it is wise' Elle 'It's what i'm giving all my girl friends' Julia Roberts 'Utterly of the moment: it manages, effortlessly, to be both spiritual and sexy all in the same tumultous breath' Guardian
