You are bidding on a brand new still sealed in plastic Audio package of COMMITTED - A SKEPTIC MAKES PEACE WITH MARRIAGE - ELIZABETH GILBERT - Author of the #1 new York Times Bestseller - Eat, Pray, Love - Read by the author - 7 CDS - Unabridged - At the end of her bestselling memoir Eat, Pray, Love ELIZABETH GILBERT fell in love with Felipe, a brazilian born man of Australian citizenship who had been living in Indonesia when they met. Resettling in America the couple swore eternal fidelity to each other but they also swore to never, ever under any circumstances get married. (Both were survivors of previous bad divorces. Enough Said) But Providence intervened one day in the form of the U.S. Government , which after detaining Felipe at an American border crossing gave the couple a choice: They could either get married or Felipe would never be allowed to enter the country again. Having been effectively SENTENCED TO WED Gilbert decided to tackle her fears of matrimony by becoming a student of the institution. Over the next ten months as she and Felipe wandered haphazardly across Southeast Asia, waiting for the U.S. government to permit them to return to America and get married, the only thing she talked about, read about, or thought about was this perplexing subject. COMMITTED tells the story of one woman's efforts through contemplation , historical study and extensive conversation with every soul she encountered along the way - to make peace with marriage before she entered its estate once more. Told with Gilbert's trademark wit, intelligence and compassion, the book attempts to TURN ON ALL THE LIGHTS when it comes to matrimony, frankly examining questions of compatibility, infatuation,fidelity, famiily tradition, social expectations, divorce risks and humbling responsbilities. Myths are debunked , fears are unthreaded, historical perspective is sought and romantic fantasies are ultimately exchanged for vital emotional compromises. In the end the book becomes a kind of celebration of love - with all the complexity and consequence of real love, in the real world, will always entail. 2010 Elizabeth Gilbert Total playing time approximately 8 1/2 hours This audio package originally retailed for $29.95 7 CDS Unabridged - NOTE**************There is a black mark over the UPC code and the plastic is cut there - there is a surface cut on the package but it doesn't affect the contents - the package is mostly sealed in plastic.
