Gilbert 1Bestselling authors Elizabeth Gilbert and Kelly Corrigan made me feel as though I’d just spent the evening talking with my two best girlfriends, even though they were sitting onstage in front of hundreds of people as they discussed German Romanticism, the rise of Empiricism, the effect of birth order on family dynamics and Tory Burch shoes.

Gilbert-coverThey had a heck of a lot of fun talking about Gilbert’s new novel, The Signature of All Things.

Below are photos I took of Elizabeth just after Kelly asked her a question about her sex life. (Kelly—a marvelous interviewer—skillfully segued to this query from a conversation about the protagonist of The Signature of All Things.) My article about the evening was published on The Women’s Eye.
