Elizabeth Gilbert Big Magic
Is there peace in creative energy? To feel one way then change your mind so quickly? Who is ignoring who? Her book Eat Pray Love changed several nations of searchers. Now she's back with Big Magic. From the iHeart Radio Studio I'm Unplugged and Totally Uncut with Elizabeth Gilbert.
Eat Pray Love made Elizabeth Gilbert one of the most iconic and beloved writers of our time. While Eat Pray Love was Gilbert’s personal memoir, many readers took it as stimulus to make changes, large and small, in their own lives. In the decade since Eat Pray Love was published, people worldwide have sought further advice from Gilbert on how to lead a bold and creative life. Gilbert’s TED talk about creativity has nearly 10 million views, making it one of the most viewed TED talks of all time, and this past fall Gilbert went on tour with Oprah, speaking to over 100,000 people along the way.
Out of this decade of investigating the source of creativity and courage in her own life, Gilbert has now written a transformative nonfiction treatise on creativity: Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear. In Big Magic, Gilbert digs deep into her own generative process to explain where inspiration comes from, how ideas form and grow, and how to overcome the fears and suffering that inevitably arise when we push at boundaries and take a leap into the unknown. With all the humor, big-heartedness, wild vulnerability, and wisdom that have already won Gilbert millions of devoted fans, she delivers a vibrant and inspirational book, one sure to be eagerly received and cherished this fall–both by the legions of Gilbert’s existing fans and followers, as well as by new readers, who will have the distinct joy of discovering Gilbert’s writing and warmth.
ELIZABETH GILBERT is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Eat Pray Love and several other internationally bestselling books. Gilbert has been a finalist for the National Book Award, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and the PEN/Hemingway Award. Her latest novel, The Signature of All Things, was named a Best Book of 2013 by The New York Times, O, The Oprah Magazine, The Washington Post, and The New Yorker
