Descubra a magia de uma vida criativa: viva a vida com mais paixão, menos angústias e em toda a sua plenitude. Alguma vez pensou em escrever um livro e desistiu mesmo antes de começar? Ou em mudar de profissão, embora nunca tenha feito nada para que isso acontecesse? Ou em fazer aquela viagem que mudaria tudo, apenas para afastar logo a ideia, arranjando mil desculpas? No fundo, quantas vezes já se quis libertar das convenções, das inseguranças e do medo e seguir o chamamento de algo maior, mas não soube como fazê-lo? Neste livro, Elizabeth Gilbert refl ete sobre o papel da criatividade na construção de uma vida plena. A maioria de nós tem um lado criativo que quase nunca tenta desenvolver por motivos práticos ou pessoais. Com uma capacidade de empatia notável, a autora mostra-nos como construir uma vida mais criativa, motivada pela curiosidade. Esta perspetiva única permite-nos alcançar o que mais desejamos e enfrentar o que mais tememos. A mudança faz-se de dentro para fora. Começa nas atitudes que temos, na forma como abordamos os lados bom e mau da vida e nos hábitos que precisamos de desenvolver para levar uma vida mais criativa, mais corajosa e mais realizada. É no equilíbrio entre a espiritualidade e o pragmatismo que Elizabeth Gilbert nos encoraja a descobrir a preciosidade que escondemos dentro de nós e a trazê-la para o nosso dia a dia. Viver a vida com mais paixão, menos angústias e em toda a sua plenitude: é este o desafio d'' A Grande Magia, uma porta aberta para o mundo da inspiração e da felicidade. Sobre A grande magia : «A Grande Magia celebra a vida. O amor de Gilbert pela criatividade é contagiante e os conselhos deste livro luminoso são muitos e bons...» Washington Post «A autora de Comer, Orar, Amar mostra-nos o caminho da criatividade. Somos todos ouvidos.» Cosmopolitan «Elizabeth Gilbert é o meu novo guru espiritual... A minha abordagem à criatividade mudou profundamente desde que li este livro.» Huffington Post «Gilbert ajuda-nos a caminhar neste mundo com um pouco mais de coragem.» Elle «Transformador.» Flavorwire «O calor e o entusiasmo característicos de Gilbert não falham... Sensata e certeira.» Boston Globe

A escritora best-seller que ensinou milhões de leitores a viver autenticamente em Comer, rezar, amar e criativamente em Grande magia agora fala sobre o amor, a tristeza, a confusão, a dor e a transformação que viveu ao lado de sua companheira Rayya Elias. Todo o caminho até o rio narra o relacionamento de Elizabeth Gilbert com sua falecida companheira, a irreverente artista Rayya Elias. Gilbert era o oposto de Rayya, mas as duas logo firmaram um vínculo inquebrável. O título deste novo livro, que levou sete anos para ser escrito, vem de uma piada interna delas, que, quando descobriram que Rayya estava morrendo de câncer, passaram a chamar a morte iminente de "o rio". Gilbert prometeu que permaneceria ao lado da companheira durante todo o percurso, mas percorrer esse caminho não se mostrou uma jornada fácil. Com extrema coragem, Gilbert revela a intimidade e o lado sombrio de sua relação com Rayya, expondo suas vulnerabilidades mais profundas ao falar de um amor tão intenso que acabou ganhando contornos extremos. Aborda os vícios de Rayya, mas também a própria dependência de amor e sexo e a forma como, na busca incessante por conexão e satisfação, acabou se perdendo de si mesma. Levou tempo para que conseguisse sair desse redemoinho emocional e retornar, pouco a pouco, a um modo de vida mais saudável e conectado com sua verdadeira essência. No fim, a devastadora angústia que marcou sua relação com Rayya acabou abrindo espaço para um novo despertar. Em Todo o caminho até o rio, Elizabeth Gilbert nos convida a atravessar com ela uma torrente caótica de emoções intensas, dolorosas e superlativas, mas profundamente humanas.

Em busca de tempo e espaço para descobrir quem era e o que realmente queria, Elizabeth Gilbert demitiu-se do emprego e partiu para uma viagem de um ano pelo mundo — sozinha. Comer, rezar, amar, que já vendeu mais de 12 milhões de exemplares no mundo, é a envolvente crônica desse ano. "E se sua vida pertencesse a você?" Foi essa a pergunta que Elizabeth Gilbert se fez ao virar a própria vida de cabeça para baixo, partindo sozinha em uma viagem de autodescoberta. Seu objetivo era visitar três lugares onde pudesse explorar diferentes aspectos de sua natureza. Em Roma, estudou a arte do prazer, aprendeu italiano e engordou os onze quilos mais felizes de sua vida. Na Índia, se dedicou à arte da devoção e, com a ajuda de uma guru local e de um caubói texano surpreendentemente sábio, embarcou em quatro meses de contínua exploração espiritual. Em Bali, estudou a arte do equilíbrio entre o prazer mundano e a transcendência divina. Tornou-se discípula de um velho xamã, e também se apaixonou — por um brasileiro — da melhor maneira possível: inesperadamente. Ninguém precisa se divorciar ou se mudar para a Índia para transformar a vida — "Não faça o que eu fiz; pergunte-se o que eu me perguntei", recomenda Gilbert. Só assim você poderá encontrar, como ela encontrou, uma real sensação de liberdade e alegria com a própria existência. Comer, rezar, amar é um convite irrecusável a todos que queiram se abrir à inesgotável, e às vezes necessária, vontade de mudar. "Nestas memórias de viagem cativantes e fascinantes, a jornalista Elizabeth Gilbert passeia, durante um ano, pela Itália, Índia e Indonésia. Nossa sorte é que as lições de vida dela são genuinamente universais." — Marie Claire EUA "Gilbert é irreverente, hilária, animada, corajosa, inteligente. Sua odisseia espiritual, sensual e audaciosa traz doses iguais de prazer e iluminação." — Booklist

And what if your most devastating heartbreak opened a pathway to your greatest awakening? All the Way to the River is a landmark memoir that will resonate with anyone who has ever been captive to love—or to any other passion, substance, or craving—and who yearns, at long last, for liberation.

À dix-sept ans, Eustace Conway a décidé de renoncer à une existence confortable pour élire domicile dans les bois. Rejetant le matérialisme, le progrès, il vit donc depuis plus d’une trentaine d’années dans un tipi. Ce qui ne l’a pas empêché de sillonner les États-Unis, ou de descendre le Mississippi en canoë. Tout ce dont il a besoin, il le construit, le fait pousser ou le chasse. Il n’a pas pour autant coupé les ponts avec la société, et rêve de voir ses concitoyens se convertir à son utopie. Charismatique et visiblement heureux, mais aussi bourré de contradictions, il ne laisse personne indifférent. Elizabeth Gilbert est tombée sous le charme de cet aventurier écolo. Avec le talent qui a fait de Mange, prie, aime un best-seller international, elle livre un portrait tendre et sans complaisance de ce seigneur des temps modernes et de son besoin irrépressible de toujours repousser les limites, quelles qu’en soient les conséquences.

Gibt es eine Erklärung für die Liebe? Die bewegende und abenteuerliche Geschichte einer außergewöhnlichen Frau. »Das Wesen der Dinge und der Liebe« erzählt die Geschichte von Alma Whittaker, einer Frau, die sich den Pflanzen verschrieb, die Naturgesetze erforschte und versuchte, das Wesen der Liebe zu ergründen. Alma wird in die Aufbruchsphase Amerikas geboren, in eine Zeit, in der die Welt erforscht und Altes durch Neues abgelöst wird. Ihr umtriebiger Vater ist mit Pflanzenhandel reich geworden und der jungen Alma fehlt es an nichts, auch nicht an Bildung. Sie wächst auf zwischen den Pflanzen der prächtigsten Gewächshäuser. Ihre ganze Leidenschaft gilt der Natur, und während ihrer Studien, die sie ihr ganzes Leben begleiten, gelingen ihr ähnlich revolutionäre Einsichten, wie sie später Charles Darwin der Welt vorführen wird. Doch in mancher Hinsicht scheinen ihre Erkenntnisse nicht auszureichen. Gibt es eine wissenschaftliche Erklärung, warum sich der Mensch nach Liebe sehnt? Was ist Liebe überhaupt? Warum sind wir mutig, wie ihre Adoptivschwester Prudence, die sich für die Abschaffung der Sklaverei einsetzt? Ein großer Roman über ein ganzes Jahrhundert, über Vernunft und Gefühle – und alles, was dazwischen liegt.

Het avontuurlijke leven van een gecompliceerde man Eustace Conway is in de ogen van Elizabeth Gilbert de laatste echte Amerikaanse man. Als zeventienjarige jongen verlaat Conway zijn ouderlijk huis, weg van de continue minachting van zijn vader. Hij verruilt huiselijk comfort voor een tipi in de Appalachen, waar hij zelfvoorzienend probeert te leven. Naarmate hij ouder wordt, jaagt hij grotere dromen na: hij vaart de Mississippi af in een zelfgemaakte kano, loopt de Appalachian Trail, en doorkruist Amerika te paard. Twintig jaar later woont Conway nog steeds in de bergen, waar hij lesgeeft in overlevingstechnieken aan mensen die dichter bij de natuur willen komen. Gaandeweg komt hij erachter dat ook hij zijn dromen zal moeten aanpassen aan de ontnuchterende realiteit van het moderne leven. Gilbert neemt op de haar kenmerkende wijze, vol energie en humor, de lezer mee in het avontuurlijke leven van een hopeloos gecompliceerde man: een visionair, een narcist, een briljante maar ook gemankeerde held van deze tijd.

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! From the # 1 New York Times bestselling author of Eat Pray Love and The Signature of All Things, a delicious novel of glamour, sex, and adventure, about a young woman discovering that you don't have to be a good girl to be a good person. "A spellbinding novel about love, freedom, and finding your own happiness." - PopSugar "Intimate and richly sensual, razzle-dazzle with a hint of danger." -USA Today "Pairs well with a cocktail...or two." -TheSkimm "Life is both fleeting and dangerous, and there is no point in denying yourself pleasure, or being anything other than what you are." Beloved author Elizabeth Gilbert returns to fiction with a unique love story set in the New York City theater world during the 1940s. Told from the perspective of an older woman as she looks back on her youth with both pleasure and regret (but mostly pleasure), City of Girls explores themes of female sexuality and promiscuity, as well as the idiosyncrasies of true love. In 1940, nineteen-year-old Vivian Morris has just been kicked out of Vassar College, owing to her lackluster freshman-year performance. Her affluent parents send her to Manhattan to live with her Aunt Peg, who owns a flamboyant, crumbling midtown theater called the Lily Playhouse. There Vivian is introduced to an entire cosmos of unconventional and charismatic characters, from the fun-chasing showgirls to a sexy male actor, a grand-dame actress, a lady-killer writer, and no-nonsense stage manager. But when Vivian makes a personal mistake that results in professional scandal, it turns her new world upside down in ways that it will take her years to fully understand. Ultimately, though, it leads her to a new understanding of the kind of life she craves - and the kind of freedom it takes to pursue it. It will also lead to the love of her life, a love that stands out from all the rest. Now eighty-nine years old and telling her story at last, Vivian recalls how the events of those years altered the course of her life - and the gusto and autonomy with which she approached it. "At some point in a woman's life, she just gets tired of being ashamed all the time," she muses. "After that, she is free to become whoever she truly is." Written with a powerful wisdom about human desire and connection, City of Girls is a love story like no other.

En el verano de 1940 Vivian Morris llega a Manhattan con 19 años y tan solo una maleta y una máquina de coser, empujada por sus desesperados padres.

"... 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.
