eat pray love. One woman’s search for everything across Italy, India and Indonesia. Elizabeth Gilbert.2006. ISBN 9780143038412. My wife suggested I read this book and I am glad she did. The author has a clear strong voice that makes this book much more than the movie (which became a Julia Roberts vehicle) . The writing style is excellent. I especially enjoyed Gilbert’s analysis/discussion of God from an Indian and Indonesian context. The story of the the cat tied to a tree is hilarious yet tragically true! I have struggled in past to understand the various forms of God worship across so many cultures, yet at the core I sensed much similarity. Gilbert clears this up but very gently. More than a “chick book” this is actually a very useful point of view.
