Sinossi
"...e vissero felici, divorziati e contenti." Doveva finire così la favola di Elizabeth Gilbert e del suo Felipe. Li avevamo lasciati a Bali, innamorati e decisi a non sposarsi mai più. Un primo matrimonio rovinosamente fallito per entrambi poteva bastare: d'ora in avanti avrebbero celebrato l'amore in modo diverso, senza vincoli e riti ufficiali, viaggiando e lavorando come prima, con Philadelphia come base e il passaporto sempre in tasca. Ma il Dipartimento americano per l'immigrazione aveva in mente un finale diverso. Elizabeth Gilbert riprende il racconto da dove l'aveva interrotto alla fine di "Mangia prega ama", ed esplora il tema controverso e affascinante del grande "sì", in un libro pieno di incontri, storie e piccole formidabili rivelazioni.

This review is gone now. I'm so sorry that Liz Gilbert lost her partner, and am so grateful to this author for having the courage to share her personal journey of searching for and finding her truth, from EPL, Committed, and then though astoundingly brave updates about her life on social media.

One thing I have noticed on multiple reviews here and at Amazon is a direct correlation between the amount of expectations the reader has upon entering this book, and the amount of dissapointment a person has by the time they write the review. This correlation makes me thankful that before picking u Leggi tutto
In thinking about why Liz Gilbert's memoir, Eat Pray Love, was so successful, I suspect that it's because it's the ultimate escapist fantasy. Gilbert flees a bad marriage and a bitter divorce and miraculously receives a large enough book advance to spend the next year traveling the world in search o Leggi tutto
My dad has an unfortunate history of giving me books that make me wonder if we are actually related ( https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... )… I can’t even remember why he decided to give me a copy of “Committed”: Jason and I had not decided to get married yet, and I am not really a fan of Elizabet Leggi tutto
Reasonable people have asked why did I read this book when I disliked Eat Pray Love so very very much & this is a reasonable & worthy question. If I were Elizabeth Gilbert I would take an extended vacation slash sojourn to ponder this, bemoaning my ever dwindling funds, with my Brazilian lover (let' Leggi tutto
When I read Eat, Pray, Love a couple of years ago, I remember thinking to myself: "Elizabeth Gilbert is hilarious and sweet and very, very interesting, but I sure would not want to be married to her." Because, you know, she sounds kind of needy. And kind of over-dramatizing, and maybe just slightly
A chatty and chummy description of marriage - in terms of history, culture and the author's own relationship and forthcoming marriage. Lots of research mentioned, but no specifics given. More along the lines of "current research says..." which I found unsatisfactory. She ends by highly recommending a Leggi tutto
