Self Help for Nihilists 0002 - Eat Pray Love

Elizabeth Gilbert's 2006 memoir, Eat Pray Love, is thoroughly likeable. It also represents a certain kind of 21st century spiritual journey that remains popular in Oprah book club circles, but is viewed with suspicion in today's privilege-obsessed culture. We talk about why we love this book, why it's not premium mediocre, whether or not failing at a relationship means it's a failure, and as always, way too much conversation about violence.
