Join us for a Lit Chat with #1 New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Gilbert! Gilbert is the author of books including Eat Pray Love, City of Girls, and Big Magic. She was interviewed by local author and journalist Nikesha Elise Williams about her latest work and her writing process. An audience Q&A followed the interview. In her critically acclaimed novels and immensely popular nonfiction, Elizabeth Gilbert expands our understanding of creativity, spirituality, and love. Whatever her subject, whether in fiction or nonfiction, Gilbert writes with “a mix of intelligence, wit, and colloquial exuberance that is close to irresistible” (The New York Times Book Review). Her memoir, Eat Pray Love, exploded onto the scene in 2006. A #1 New York Times bestseller, Eat Pray Love famously chronicled the year Gilbert spent traveling the world after a shattering divorce. Translated into more than 30 languages, the book has sold over thirteen million copies, and was adapted into a 2010 film starring Julia Roberts and Javier Bardem. In the years since, people around the world have looked to Gilbert for guidance in leading brave, authentic, and creative lives. With over 20 million views, her TED Talk on creativity is one of the top 25 most popular of all time. In her nonfiction treatise, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear, another instant #1 New York Times bestseller that has sold over one million copies, Gilbert unpacks her own generative process and shares her wise, witty insights into the mysteries of curiosity and inspiration. Her newest bestseller is the novel, City of Girls, a “fiercely feminist” (Esquire) story of a young woman coming into her own in the theater world of 1940s New York. City of Girls debuted at #2 on The New York Times bestseller list, has sold nearly a million copies, and is currently in development at Warner Brothers as a major motion picture.

Can you survive your worst choices? How do you get through heartbreaking grief? Elizabeth Gilbert wrote her new novel, City of Girls, after a devastating loss. And yet — it’s a sexy, fun, rollicking book I couldn’t put down. In it, she attacks the antiquated idea of a ‘ruined woman’ by celebrating female desire and love. Her vulnerability in this conversation will give you insight on dealing with grief and how to approach each new life phase with openness. https://www.marieforleo.com/2019/06/elizabeth-gilbert-city-of-girls/ “You don't have to be a good girl to be a good person.” @GilbertLiz via @MarieForleo
