All the way to the river: my story of love, loss and liberation
On the shelf? Just pop in.
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 re-enacted 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.
