"An inspiring personal journey and an enlightening travelogue."
How could I talk about Island books and not mention this classic? To be perfectly honest, there are three other books that deserve to be on this list also, but then, just as I was narrowing my list, I thought of Bali – the toothless old man, the great learning that all is well, you just need to sit and smile…
This is a book that most women my age devoured when it first hit the shelves and yet, it remains (maybe in some part thanks to the movie) still present in my mind when I think of books I’ve enjoyed. Gilbert brings us on an emotional safari, taking in not just Bali, Italy and India, but in the company of a plucky narrator who despite being in search of herself, is very much a heroine for our age.
The prose is beautiful, the dialogue smart and the settings…. Even if you never leave your armchair, this is a book to wash away those cares and worries between two delicious covers.
