On July 21, 2021, Suvari announced the release of her memoir, The Great Peace: A Memoir, which reveals the sexual abuse and drug addiction she went through prior to her success.

"I was living a double life," Suvari told People magazine. "Every time I would go on a set. Every time I was interviewed, I was acting the whole time. It was another role for me to play. That I was okay."

In the book, she talks about being sexually assaulted first back in sixth grade by a friend of her older brother. In the book, she refers to the predator as "KJ."

"Part of me died that day," Suvari said. "He used me, had fun with me and then disposed of me. He called me a whore. I never got to have a healthy expression of [sex]. My choice was lost. And that, compiled with already not feeling seen and heard, established a concept that I would have of myself. That that was my value."

After moving to Hollywood at 15-years-old to pursue acting, Suvari also revealed that a manager wanted a sexual relationship with her too.

"By this time my family had pretty much fallen apart," Suvari continued. "My mother had moved out and wanted to find herself and my father [who was much older] was in decline mentally and physically. I didn't feel like I had any other options or was worthy of a life that was any different."

Most recently, Suvari recalled a "weird" experience on set of American Beauty with Kevin Spacey prior to his sexual assault scandal.

Her book will be released July 27, 2021 and is available for pre-order through Amazon.
