In One Peace (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798318842689)

Living in fragments, pieces scattered across memories, diagnoses, and places barley held in one frame, without ever knowing what the fractures mean.

In In One Peace, Brooke Cherie Dennis opens the door to a life refracted like light through a prism. Born in Lafayette, Louisiana, raised across Brazil and Venezuela, she witnessed a military coup before the age of twelve, navigated culture shocks that shattered her sense of self, and carried those invisible wounds into adulthood. Diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder, PTSD, OCD, and schizoaffective disorder, she refused to let clinical language be the final word on who she is. Instead, she turned to Polyvagal Theory, Stoic philosophy, music, and the discipline of the equestrian ring to map the geometry of her own survival. This is not a textbook. It is one woman's honest, minimalist exploration of trauma, identity, and the art of reassembling a life.

If you have ever felt like a broken mirror, this book will show you how the pieces still catch the light.
