Elizabeth Gilbert - City of Girls—at Lincoln Theatre

Upcoming Event

Thursday, June 6, 2019 - 7:00pm

Elizabeth Gilbert, New York Times bestselling author of Eat, Pray, Love, returns to fiction with a story about love, life, and desire. City of Girls is set in the theater world of the 1940s and is told from the perspective of Vivian Morris as she looks back on her youth with both pleasure and regret, exploring themes of female sexuality and promiscuity, as well as the idiosyncrasies of true love. Ultimately, the story leads Vivian to a new understanding of the kind of life she craves and the kind of freedom it takes to pursue it. It will also lead to the love of her life, a love that stands out from all the rest. Written with a powerful wisdom about human desire and connection, City of Girls is a love story like no other.
