All the Way to the River: Love, Loss, and Liberation (Signed!) [J0345]

2025 signed HCDJ in Gift-Worthy condition. In her first nonfiction book in a decade, the #1 bestselling writer who taught millions of readers to live authentically (Eat Pray Love) and creatively (Big Magic) shows how to break free. In 2000, Elizabeth Gilbert met Rayya. They became friends, then best friends, then inseparable. When tragedy entered their lives, the truth was finally laid bare: The two were in love. They were also a pair of addicts, on a collision course toward catastrophe. What if your most beautiful love story turned into your biggest nightmare? What if the dear friend who taught you so much about your self-destructive tendencies became the unstable partner with whom you disastrously reenacted every one of them? And what if your most devastating heartbreak opened a pathway to your greatest awakening? All the Way to the River is a landmark memoir that will resonate with anyone who has ever been captive to love-or to any other passion, substance, or craving-and who yearns, at long last, for liberation.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "An intense and raw look at addiction, a masterclass in codependency and an honest look at the struggles that most caregivers experience."; "This nonfiction book is about what it's like to live with an addiction while living with someone with an addiction. It made me think of things in ways new to me."; "A tender, beautiful memoir about Elizabeth Gilbert's love story with Rya and the tumultuous, dangerous, addictions she experienced. A story of how she found herself during recovery and discovered how beautiful life can be."
