About this listen

On December 6, 1984, 12-year-old Lisa Fierer is called out of class to the principal’s office and told that her mother has been killed and her father arrested for the crime. Over the next 20 years, Lisa battles through school, addiction, relationships, and various forms of self-destruction. Along the way, she learns that loss, violence, and betrayal create a deep desire for something she calls the new "f-word": forgiveness.

Thirst is about the distance between the lives we are given and the lives we choose. It’s a story about survival, hope, yoga, self-discovery, and the tremendous support of compassionate communities. It touches the part of each of us that longs for the healing power of laughter, the transformative force of forgiveness, and the bravery required to learn to love again.

Couldn’t put it down

If you enjoyed Matthew McConaughey and Will Smiths books, you’ll love this one. Lisa tells her story in such a vulnerable, funny and honest way that you can’t help but feel like you were there with her. Even though her journey was rough and most people won’t ever go through this particular journey she shares it in the most relatable way. And if nothing else, if Lisa can go through this and coming out stronger on the other side than there sure isn’t anything we can’t get through. A beautiful book of funny moments and beautiful twists that only the magic of life could make up…. A typical “you couldn’t make this up”- kind of story. A beautiful portrayal of the personal freedom that comes from forgiving others insanity. Thanks for telling your story. Inspiring!!!!!
