*************************************
Oxford Exchange and Tampa Theatre collaborate again for a special evening with bestselling author Elizabeth Gilbert, in celebration of the release of her new book, All the Way to the River.
Gilbert is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the novels City of Girls, The Signature of All Things, and Stern Men; the story collection Pilgrims; and the nonfiction books Big Magic, Eat Pray Love, Committed, and The Last American Man. A finalist for the National Book Award, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and the PEN/Hemingway Award, Gilbert began her career as a journalist.
All the Way to the River: Love, Loss, and Liberation is a poignant memoir chronicling Gilbert’s relationship with her late partner, Rayya Elias, whom she met in 2000. As their friendship deepened into love, both struggled with addiction. Their tumultuous journey was marked by tragedy and self-destructive patterns, but it ultimately led to Gilbert’s profound awakening. Raw and honest, All the Way to the River offers a universal tale of love, grief, recovery, and the quest for liberation from addiction and emotional captivity.
*************************************
Tickets are $46.00, available at the historic Franklin Street Box Office or online ($1.00 service fee applies) and include a pre-signed hardback copy of All the Way to the River.
