New Releases by Elizabeth Gilbert

THE MAGNIFICENT NEW NOVEL FROM THE NO. 1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR In a remote, high-altitude corner of Siberia, a lone family of religious Russian fundamentalists have lived isolated and undetected for forty-four years. Since retreating in the 1930s from the dangers and comforts of the world, the parents and children have scrounged off the cold and unforgiving land, having no contact with any humans except each other. Untethered from human progress, unaware even of the events of WWII, their knowledge and beliefs have remained frozen in time, their lives devoted wholly to their faith and the hard work of survival. But their discovery in 1980 by a team of Soviet geologists will change all of that. One unlikely woman - a scholar and linguist who has spent her life in a different kind of hiding - is sent to the family''s mountaintop to bridge the chasm between modern existence and their ancient, snow forest life. What she uncovers in that dangerous and beautiful wilderness will be stranger and more miraculous than anything she had ever expected, and will upturn her own quiet life forever. Emerging from a place of beauty, awe and danger, The Snow Forest is the dramatic and inspiring story of a family who escapes the threats of early-twentieth-century Russia for a life of extreme, untouched wilderness. Beloved author Elizabeth Gilbert brings her formidable storytelling talents to the magnificent, magical extremes of the Siberian taiga and considers: how permeable, really, is the line between mankind and nature?

In her first non-fiction book in a decade, the #1 bestselling writer who taught millions of readers to live authentically (Eat Pray Love) and creatively (Big Magic) shows how to break free. In 2000, Elizabeth Gilbert met Rayya. They became friends, then best friends, then inseparable. When tragedy entered their lives, the truth was finally laid bare: The two were in love. They were also a pair of addicts, on a collision course toward catastrophe. What if your most beautiful love story turned into your biggest nightmare? What if the dear friend who taught you so much about your self-destructive tendencies became the unstable partner with whom you disastrously reenacted every one of them? 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.

In "Homer Martin, a Reminiscence," Elizabeth Gilbert Martin offers a profound exploration of the life and legacy of her paternal grandfather, Homer Martin, blending memoir and biography with an intimate narrative style. Martin''Äôs lyrical prose captures the essence of her grandfather''s experiences, illustrating not only his personal journey but also the broader historical context that shaped his life. Through vivid anecdotes and meticulously researched details, the author envelops readers in a tapestry of familial bonds, American life in the early 20th century, and the transformative power of memory, compelling them to reflect on their own histories. Elizabeth Gilbert Martin, a talented writer with a diverse literary background, draws from her own rich experiences in creating this homage to her grandfather. Her previous works, steeped in authenticity and emotional depth, are emboldened by a deep reverence for family narratives and personal histories. This multifaceted approach showcases her commitment to bridging generational gaps, emphasizing the wisdom of our ancestors while inviting readers to consider their own familial legacies. "Homer Martin, a Reminiscence" is a beautifully crafted work that resonates on multiple levels, making it essential reading for those interested in memoir, history, and the intricate weave of personal and collective identity. I recommend this book not only for its literary beauty but also for its poignant reflections on love, loss, and the enduring connections that bind us across time.

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.

Milostný příběh z hereckého prostředí plný ženské sexuality a zvláštně projevované lásky se odehrává ve 40. letech v New Yorku. Román od úspěšné autorky knihy Jíst, meditovat, milovat. Příběh vypráví pětadevadesátiletá Vivian, která s potěšením i s lítostí (převážně však s potěšením) vzpomíná na své divoké mládí a na to, jak v devatenácti letech přijela do New Yorku. Jak sama vypravěčka přiznává, vždy byla dobrá jen ve dvou věcech: v šití a v sexu. To první jí dopomůže k místu krejčové v kabaretním divadle, kde se rychle stane vyhledávanou posilou. Zblízka se zde setkává s varietními umělci, kteří na pódiu sice sklízejí potlesk, nicméně v soukromí je provází špatná pověst. Ovšem píše se rok 1940 a ženám zdaleka není dovoleno žít podle svého. Vivian a pár dalších žen z jejího okolí se rozhodne překročit přísné morální mantinely té doby a žít svobodně i za cenu toho, že se na ně okolí bude dívat skrz prsty. Prostopášné varietní prostředí se tak stává kulisou strhujícího životního příběhu, kdy mladé ženy musely bojovat za svou svobodu, sexualitu i lásku.

Bestseller n.o 1 do The New York Times A brilhante autora de Comer, Orar, Amar volta com uma história de amor única, cheia de glamour, humor e paixão pela vida. «De qualquer maneira, há uma altura em que uma mulher simplesmente se cansa de passar a vida envergonhada. Depois disso, é livre de se tornar quem realmente é.» No Verão de 1940, aos 19 anos, empurrada pelo desespero dos pais, Vivian Morris chega a Manhattan levando consigo apenas uma mala e uma máquina de costura. Embora pouco apreciados na prestigiada Faculdade de Vassar, o seu especial talento com as agulhas e a sua dedicação para lograr o penteado perfeito acabaram por transformá-la na estilista estrela de Lily Playhouse, o decadente teatro de variedades da sua nada convencional tia Peg. Apesar da guerra, os dias em Nova Iorque são tudo menos aborrecidos. Nesta cidade das mulheres, Vivian e as suas amigas tentam ser livres e beber a vida até à última gota. Mas ela também descobrirá que tem lições para aprender e amargos erros para cometer e que, para viver a vida que verdadeiramente deseja, terá de se reinventar a cada passo. Os elogios da crítica: «Ferozmente feminista, além de repleto de verdades inspiradoras sobre o amor e a liberdade, este romance é um banquete para os sentidos e um bálsamo para a alma.» Esquire.com «Gilbert desenha um perfil fascinante das aventuras da jovem Vivian, abordando temas intemporais e muito oportunos, como a liberdade, a responsabilidade e o empoderamento.» Time «Um romance glamouroso, sexy, fascinante e divertido. Uma história viciante com personagens femininas cheias de intensidade e traçadas sem pudor. Radical e refrescante.» Sunday Times «Perfeito. Um romance absorvente e sincero, com uma mensagem poderosa sobre a realização pessoal e a felicidade.» Publishers Weekly «Uma celebração gloriosa, complexa e emocionalmente inteligente do que significa ser mulher.» The Guardian «Graças às suas personagens vívidas, diálogos engenhosos, tramas engraçadas mas emocionais, cenas verdadeiramente eróticas, inteligência sexual, suspense e verdades incisivas, ler A Cidade das Mulheres é pura delícia.» Booklist «Vívido, sexy e inteligente.» People Magazine «Delicioso. Personagens fantásticas, vestidos esplêndidos, frases incrivelmente engenhosas, uma sugestiva atmosfera de guerra e excelentes descrições de sexo.» Kirkus Reviews «Os engenhosos diálogos de Elizabeth Gilbert brilham como diamantes no champanhe.» The Washington Post «As raparigas e as mulheres do livro não sobrevivem: elas prosperam, dançam, vivem.» OprahMag.com «Íntimo e ricamente sensual, deslumbrante, com uma pitada de perigo.» USA Today

New York est une fête! Du haut de ses 19 ans, Vivian sait déjà qu’elle ne veut pas du destin tout tracé par ses parents. Mais de sa bulle protégée, elle est loin de s’imaginer le tourbillon incroyable qu’est New York au début des années 1940. Alors, quand après un énième échec scolaire elle est envoyée chez sa tante Peg qui possède un théâtre en plein Times Square, Vivian n’en croit pas ses yeux. Entre la ville qui vibre sans cesse et la troupe d’artistes et de danseuses qui cohabitent joyeusement dans le théâtre, Vivian découvre l’exubérance, la fête et la liberté. Surtout auprès de sa nouvelle amie Celia, une sublime showgirl très émancipée pour l’époque... Mais un faux pas lors d’une virée nocturne fera hélas chavirer le nouveau monde de Vivian et la renverra à la case départ. Quand on a goûté au bonheur d’être une fille libre, peut-on y renoncer ?

En el verano de 1940, Vivian Morris llega a Manhattan tan solo con una maleta y una máquina de coser.

Pero Vivian también descubrirá que le quedan lecciones que aprender y errores que cometer, y que para vivir la vida que desea tendrá que reinventarse a cada paso. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION 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. Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2019 by Oprah.com, Real Simple, Buzzfeed, Cosmopolitan, GoodReads, PureWow, Vulture, The Millions and more. "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.

In her early thirties, Elizabeth Gilbert had everything a modern American woman was supposed to want-husband, country home, successful career-but instead of feeling happy and fulfilled, she was consumed by panic and confusion.

Elizabeth Gilbert, autora superventas de Come, reza, ama, nos trae un relato inspiracional como ruta de acceso a la vida vibrante y plena con la que siempre has soñado. Vence al miedo y descubre el milagro de una vida creativa. La mayoría de los humanos tenemos una faceta creativa en nuestras mentes que casi nunca conseguimos o queremos desarrollar por motivos prácticos o personales. Gilbert defiende la necesidad de explorar la faceta creativa para alcanzar una existencia plena, superando el miedo (a la vergüenza, a hacer el ridículo, a perder el tiempo, a no ser tomado en serio) y abrazando la parte mística e intangible de la inspiración. La autora explica cómo tener una relación positiva con la creatividad propia, cómo ser disciplinado pero no tomárselo demasiado en serio, cómo no albergar grandes expectativas pero no dejarse desanimar y cómo cada pequeño acto cotidiano, sea un dibujo, decorar la casa o hacer patinaje artístico, alimenta esa parte creativa de los humanos y no solo puede, sino que debe formar parte orgánica de nuestras vidas. Al mismo tiempo desmitifica totalmente la figura del artista atormentado, defendiendo una actitud abierta, receptiva y positiva en busca de la inspiración como resultado de una curiosidad sana, una disciplina y una determinación que mantengan el ego a raya y permitan sobrellevar decepciones y fracasos. « La creatividad es sagrada y al mismo tiempo no lo es. Lo que hacemos importa muchísimo y al mismo tiempo no importa nada. Trabajamos en soledad, y nos acompañan espíritus. Estamos aterrorizados y somos valientes. El arte es una tarea abrumadora y un privilegio maravilloso. El trabajo quiere ser hecho, y quiere ser hecho por ti». Elizabeth Gilbert Reseña: «Su avalancha de optimismo, aderezada con la dosis de humor de quien habla por experiencia, servirá de mantra a más de un lector.» El País
