Committed

About this book

At the end of her memoir 'Eat, Pray, Love', Elizabeth Gilbert fell in love with Felipe, a Brazilian-born man of Australian citizenship. Resettling in America, the couple swore eternal fidelity to each other, but also swore to never get legally married. But providence intervened in the form of the United States government, which-after detaining Felipe at an American border crossing gave the couple a choice - they could get married, or Felipe would never be allowed to enter the country again. 'Committed' attempts to 'turn on all the lights' when it comes to matrimony. Frankly examining questions of compatibility, infatuation, fidelity, family tradition, social expectations, divorce risks, and humbling responsibilities.
