But for some reason, Eat Pray Love became a tsunami. I’d never been a bestselling author before (I always joke that my first three books had sold “upwards of dozens of copies”), and heaven knows there were already plenty of divorce memoirs, travel memoirs and spiritual memoirs out there on the market before mine hit the bookstores in 2006. Certainly nothing in my life had prepared me for such monumental success. In this exclusive extract from a new anthology that brings together the stories of those whose lives were changed by Elizabeth Gilbert’s global phenomenon, the author herself reflects on the inestimable impact of Eat Pray Love ten years after the journey first began.įor the past ten years, I’ve been trying to figure out why Eat Pray Love became such a giant phenomenon in the first place.
