Gabrielle Hamilton
In Blood, Bones, and Butter: The Inadvertent Education of a Reluctant Chef (Random House, $26.00), chef-turned-memoirist, Gabrielle Hamilton recounts her life story. She begins with her idyllic-childhood-turned-sour, as a result of her parents’ divorce, then moves to her adolescence and young womanhood, which included drugs, menial jobs, and lack of direction, and to the launch of her celebrated East Village restaurant, Prune. Vogue magazine calls the story, ". . . moving, original, and quite beautiful . . .”
