What if your most devastating heartbreak opened a pathway to your greatest awakening? Join Elizabeth Gilbert at the Balboa Theatre on October 23 for lecture and audience Q&A about her highly anticipated memoir, "All the Way to the River," to be published on Sept 9. All orchestra seats include a signed book. Praise for "All the Way to the River": “Moving, and shocking. Raw and real… a book of genuine care and soul-searching, speaking from the abyss of an experience we’d all be lucky to never have. It’s a tremendous achievement, a heart-breaking journey into the depths and back.” – Lithub, Most Anticipated Books “[An] inspiring account…Gilbert achieves her signature intimacy through a bluntly confessional tone… and an admirable ability to stare darkness in the face without losing hope. Readers struggling with addiction or seeking a path through heartbreak will find invaluable wisdom in these pages.” – Publishers Weekly, Starred Review In her critically acclaimed novels and immensely popular nonfiction, Elizabeth Gilbert expands our understanding of creativity, spirituality, and love. Whatever her subject, whether in fiction or nonfiction, Gilbert writes with “a mix of intelligence, wit, and colloquial exuberance that is close to irresistible” (The New York Times Book Review). Her #1 New York Times bestselling memoir, "Eat Pray Love" exploded onto the scene in 2006 and famously chronicled the year she spent traveling the world after a shattering divorce. Translated into more than 30 languages, the book was adapted into a 2010 film starring Julia Roberts and Javier Bardem. In the years since her books have sold over 25 million copies worldwide, and people around the globe have looked to Gilbert for guidance in leading brave, authentic, and creative lives. With over 21.8 million views, her TED Talk on creativity is among the most popular of all time, while her creativity manifesto, "Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear," was another instant #1 New York Times bestseller selling over 1 million copies. Her most recent novel is "City of Girls," a “fiercely feminist” (Esquire) story of a young woman coming into her own in the theater world of 1940s New York. Debuting at #2 on The New York Times bestseller list, it has sold 1 million copies. Her highly anticipated memoir, "All the Way to the River," will be published on Sept 9, 2025.
