Eat, Pray, Love, Marry

The World

When Elizabeth Gilbert wrote Eat, Pray, Love, a witty account of her globe-hopping, soul-searching journey after a divorce, she never imagined that Julia Roberts would be playing her in a movie adaptation. Gilbert followed that book up with a memoir, Committed: A Skeptic Makes Peace with Marriage. Kurt talked to Gilbert about it in 2010. Her advice to couples considering tying the knot: talk about the big three – children, sex, and money.
