Elizabeth Gilbert’s Next
In case you’re wondering, USA Today reports that Elizabeth Gilbert’s next book, after Eat, Pray, Love and Committed, won’t be out for quite a while. She’s planning an historical novel about 19th C botanists, but hasn’t started work on it.
Gilbert says this is the last time she will talk about EPL. She is only doing it now to help her friend, featured in the Italian section of EPL, Luca Spaghetti (YES, that’s his real name), to promote his own book about that period. It’s not working out that well, however. The USA Today story focuses on Gilbert, barely mentioning Spaghetti’s book, Un Amico Italiano: Eat, Pray, Love in Rome.
PW calls the book a “nice companion” to EPL; LJ says it’s “all good fun,” if an “opportunistic spin-off.”
