When it appeared in 1997, Elizabeth Gilbert’s story collection, Pilgrims, immediately announced her compelling voice, her comic touch, and her amazing ear for dialogue. “The heroes of Pilgrims . . . are everyday seekers” (Harper’s Bazaar)—brave and unforgettable, they are sure to strike a chord with fans old and new.

I fell in love with Gilbert's writing from Eat, Pray, Love. This compilation of short stories did not disappoint. I had to stop between each story and rest a bit before starting the next because my brain would not let the previous story go.

The condition of the book was excellent.
I am a fan of Elizabeth Gilbert, however the open ended quality of this book left me a bit exasperated.

This is an incredibly well written book, and Elizabeth Gilbert is my new hero. However, I like her other books much better. Eat, Love Pray is fabulous.

I expected more. I love Elizabeth Gilbert's Eat, Pray, Love and I thought I would enjoy this one, but I was wrong. Her short stories went nowhere and had no real significance to them. The characters really didn't leave an lasting impression on me either. I was dissapointed with this book, however, I would still be interested to see what Gilbert puts out in the future.
Satisfying indeed. (2002-01-02)

A friend's interest in Gilbert spurned me to read this short story collection, which I found very enjoyable. Gilbert has a way of creating a very vivid scene and situation, so as to wrap your interest around the characters promptly. Then, naughty as it is, she ends her stories almost always leaving you to wonder how everything will play out. It's more that she's giving you a glimpse into another world, rather than relating a brief story from beginning to end.
