Solace in Chaos: A Chef's Memoir

Perhaps the most frightening experience for a young child is sexual abuse from a trusted acquaintance or family member. Combined with a dysfunctional family dynamic and the fact that he was adopted, Spencer Gorman-Prow clearly had the odds stacked against him in terms of achieving personal success. Yet, he was able to overcome adversity and even thrive, simply by finding his calling in the field of culinary arts. Achieving control in the kitchen helped Spencer find solace in the chaos within that environment, as well as within his own psyche.By relating his experiences and sharing his coping mechanisms in this poignant memoir, Spencer hopes that readers of Solace in Chaos will perhaps find their own way to overcome past abuse and trauma. It all begins with the knowledge that you are not responsible for the traumatic events of your past, and practicing self-forgiveness over guilt. No matter your passion in life, you, too, can find solace in an environment where you are in control - no matter how chaotic.
