Description

The Nile on eBay FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Don't Yell at Her! by Carmen Joy King At forty-three, Carmen drives 4,000 km alone to Mexico to take Iboga, a powerful psychedelic, hoping to break free from love addiction and chronic anxiety. A raw journey of healing, self-discovery, and finally learning to trust herself. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In the depths of winter, Carmen Joy King loads her dog and all her possessions into a boxy Japanese hatchback and sets off on an improbable 4,000-kilometer solo drive to Mexico. Her destination: a remote psychedelic retreat where she hopes to find freedom from three decades of debilitating love addiction.Traversing mountain passes and desert highways, King confronts not just the dangers of the open road but the ghosts of her past-childhood wounds, patterns of seeking validation, and a series of relationships with emotionally unavailable men. As she moves through memories of growing up in rural Alberta, her years teaching in Japan, and a hasty marriage in Brazil, King examines the origins of her self-destructive patterns with unflinching honesty and unexpected humor.Don't Yell at Her! is a remarkable journey into the wilderness of healing, where the land's stark beauty mirrors King's own stripping away of defenses. Candid about her struggles with anxiety, body image, and self-worth, she discovers that true belonging comes not from external validation but from reconnecting with her soul.Raw, irreverent, and ultimately hopeful, this memoir speaks to anyone who has ever longed to break free from destructive cycles and find their way home to themselves. Review "Every woman will recognize some part, or parts, of themselves in this story, and will get lost in the vivid language that brings Carmen right into our hearts."- Joan Flood, Left Unsaid"King documents encounters with old flames, dead relatives, and wild animals-real and imagined. For fans of Cheryl Strayed, Jenny Slate, and Melissa Febos, this is a road trip memoir that grips you by the throat and doesn't let go."-Joselin Linder, The Family Gene"This is a rare, brutal look at how trauma shapes our most maddening behaviors, and how true freedom only comes softly and incrementally. This is a journey inward, but in King's capable hands, we come out renewed." -Alle Mudrick, Blue Hour Homecoming"Don't Yell at Her! is a searing, soul-baring account of a woman's search for healing at the crossroads of love addiction, trauma, and transcendence. It's about what we run from, what we carry, and the radical courage it takes to come home to ourselves."- Branka Petrovic, Mechanics of a Gaze"King's voice is sharp and lyrical, with a knack for capturing the vulnerability of rebuilding a life from the ground up. A daring exploration of freedom, healing and the power of reclaiming one's narrative." -Bryan Armen Graham, The Guardian Details ISBN 1069752002 Year 2025 AU Release Date 2025-11-05 Author Carmen Joy King Pages 380 Publisher Carmen Joy King Publishing Edition Description Large type / large print edition ISBN-10 1069752002 ISBN-13 9781069752000 Format Paperback Publication Date 2025-11-05 Imprint Carmen Joy King Publishing Subtitle A Memoir of Psychedelics, Crossing Borders, and Finding Freedom from Love Addiction Audience General Country of Origin US Product Class Description Autobiography: General We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.

  2. I had a ‘90s copy. I was excited about the new edition. With a new forward by J Wasserman and intro by LM DuQuette. The book was excellent value and it arrived in perfect condition as it was sold new. A gorgeous looking tome.I gave 5 stars for the description, I had no communication with the seller and only gave 4 stars for Dispatch Time. Dispatched on Nov 4th with the last day being tomorrow. The process was great. Highly recommended. I’ve done business with these guys and will continue to.

  3. I love these diaries but they can be a little expensive. However this was a good price from this seller and I would definitely use this seller again. Excellent communication. The delivery time was a little longer than stated but it wasn’t the seller’s fault. They were very supportive. I was worried the item would arrive bent or folded if it was taking so long in transit but it was really well packaged and in perfect condition.
