Elizabeth Gilbert

Elizabeth Gilbertin Eat Pray Love - Omaa tietä etsimässä on inspiroinut ja rohkaissut lukuisia ihmisiä itsetutkiskeluun ja elämänmuutokseen ilmestymisestään lähtien. Kolmeakymppiä lähestyvällä Elizabeth Gilbertillä on kaikki mitä moderni nainen voi toivoa: aviomies, maaseutukoti ja menestyksekäs ura, mutta silti hän tuntee itsensä onnettomaksi ja turhautuneeksi. Paniikkikohtaukset ja sekava olo tekevät arjesta tuskallisen. Lopulta Elizabeth päättää päästää irti kaikesta turvallisesta ja ulkoisesti näyttävästä. Hän lähtee matkalle, joka muuttuu pohjimmiltaan matkaksi omaan itseen. Elizabeth sukeltaa syvälle mielensä kolkkiin kolmen kulttuurin koskettamana: Italia tuo hänen elämäänsä nautinnon, Intia henkisyyden, ja matka Indonesiaan eheyttää hänet.

Yli 25 miljoonaa kirjaa myynyt Elizabeth Gilbert nousi maailmanmenestykseen Eat Pray Lovella, joka inspiroi miljoonia lukijoita löytämään itsensä. Uudessa merkkiteoksessaan hän paljastaa sielunsa ja koskettaa jokaista, joka on joskus ollut rakkauden – tai minkä tahansa intohimon – vanki. Onko mahdollista päästää irti ja vapautua? Kun Elizabethin paras ystävä Rayya sairastuu parantumattomaan syöpään, on aika tunnustaa: ystävät ovat syvästi ja intohimoisesti rakastuneita toisiinsa. Mutta pinnan alla kytee kahden riippuvaisen ihmisen syöksykierre kohti vääjäämätöntä romahdusta. Lukijaa ravisuttava muistelma kertoo häkellyttävän tositarinan intohimoisesta, elämää suuremmasta rakkaudesta ja sen menettämisestä, addiktioiden tuhoavasta voimasta sekä vapautumisen kipeästä tiestä.

'No one who reads this book will ever forget it' Meg Mason 'An absolute masterclass and truth-bomb … I think many people will be shaken awake by this book' Emma Gannon In her first non-fiction book in a decade, the no. 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.

The astounding new memoir from the number one bestselling author of Eat Pray Love and Big Magic

Observera att denna titel skickas efter jul Tänk om din vackraste kärlekshistoria blev din största mardröm? Elizabeth Gilberts första, efterlängtade självbiografiska bok på 10 år. Den bästsäljande författaren som har lärt miljoner läsare att leva autentiskt (Eat Pray Love) och kreativt (Big Magic) visar vägen genom sorgen och hur du kan bryta dig loss, göra upp med självdestruktiva beteenden och bli fri. År 2000 träffade Elizabeth Gilbert för första gången sin hårfrisörska, Rayya. De blev vänner, sedan bästa vänner och därefter oskiljaktiga. När en tragedi tog över deras liv kunde de inte blunda för sanningen längre: De var förälskade. De var också två missbrukare som befann sig på en livsfarlig resa på vägen mot katastrof. Tänk om din vackraste kärlekshistoria blev din största mardröm? Tänk om din käraste vän, som lärt dig så mycket om självdestruktiva beteenden, blev en instabil partner och ni tillsammans tvingades återuppleva varenda ett av dem på det mest ödesdigra sätt? Och tänk om din mest förkrossande hjärtesorg öppnade vägen till ditt största uppvaknade? Hela vägen ner till floden är en banbrytande självbiografi som kommer att få alla läsare som fastnat i en passion, ett missbruk eller ett beroende, att känna igen sig själva – och längta efter att äntligen få känna befrielse. Eller som författaren Liz själv beskriver: Det här är en bok för alla som har förlorat sig i kärlek eller har vandrat vid någons sida hela vägen till döden skiljt dem åt – och sedan varit tvungna att komma på hur man ska leva vidare. Det är den mest intima, ärliga, svåra och viktigaste bok jag någonsin har skrivit.
