All The Way To The River

Beskrivelse

Elizabeth Gilbert’s latest memoir dives deep into a powerful and painful love story that transforms from beauty to nightmare. It explores addiction, loss, and the journey toward healing and freedom.

A heartfelt exploration of love, addiction, and the path to liberation.

Twenty years after inspiring millions with Eat Pray Love and a decade following Big Magic, Elizabeth Gilbert returns with a profoundly personal and universal story. In 2000, a chance introduction to a new hairdresser, Rayya Elias, sparked an intense and unexpected connection between two very different women.

Rayya, a bold East Village rebel who doubted her artistic success, and Liz, a married woman with a surprising creative spirit, grew from acquaintances to inseparable best friends. But when tragedy struck, their true feelings surfaced: they were in love.

Both struggling with addiction, their relationship became a dangerous dance, challenging their sanity and wellbeing. The friend who taught Liz about her own self-destructive patterns also became the unstable partner with whom those patterns played out.

All the Way to the River is a raw and moving account for anyone who has ever been held captive by love or any consuming passion, craving, or addiction-and who longs for peace and freedom in the end.
