All the way to the river : love, loss, and liberation
Gilbert, Elizabeth, 1969-2025
Book
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.
