All There Is

“[A] collection of gems . . . All There Is made me verklempt a ridiculous amount of times.” —Boston Globe

“Heart-poundingly good . . . There’s just one word for the book: lovely.” —The Huffington Post

A celebration of love from StoryCorps

In All There Is, StoryCorps founder David Isay shares stories from the revolutionary oral history project, revealing the many remarkable journeys that relationships can take.

In these pages we discover that love is found in unexpected places: a New York tollbooth, a military base in Iraq, an airport lounge. We encounter love that survives discrimination, illness, poverty, distance—even death. Carrying us from the excitement and anticipation of courtship to the deep connection of lifelong commitment, All There Is enriches our understanding of love and of the resilience of the human spirit.

Dave Isay’s latest book, Callings, published in 2016 from Penguin Press.
