Elizabeth Gilbert gives Kink an exclusive interview about her worldwide bestseller "Eat, Pray, Love".
I don’t know anyone who has read "Eat, Pray, Love" who didn’t find them self somewhere in the pages. Elizabeth Gilbert’s book is a siren song for women asking the essential question "Is this all?"
Whether it’s your marriage, or your work, or a bad haircut you need to let go of, Gilbert speaks to the unexamined, the stuck, the unfulfilled part of your life. She advocates something other cultures teach their daughters very early- sometimes, you need a quest to figure out what’s next. Her quest took her to Italy to eat, to India to pray, and finally to Bali, where she spent a lot of time loving.
She’s coming to the Literary Arts speaker series April 3rd and you’ll hear her talk about some of what she learns.
In this interview, (the only one you’ll hear in Portland) she shares her thoughts about modern womanhood, whether she’ll be able to reconcile marriage, an institution she vowed never to revisit, and offers some hilarious advice for other struggling artists.
