About REARRANGED
In lyrical prose, with musical allusions, clinical references, and a bit of comic relief, REARRANGED follows Kathleen Watt's plunge from the operatic stage into the netherworld of hospital life, through the devastation of an osteogenic sarcoma tumor in her midface, and out the other side. Kathleen was a soprano singing with the New York Metropolitan Opera chorus, when a rare and vicious bone cancer blew her career to smithereens, along with her face. Rescued by lethal toxins, titanium screws, and infinite kindness, the life she resumed was catastrophically transposed. REARRANGED describes letting go to hold on; putting old pieces to new uses; and the unlikely arrangements that make everything work out. With a foreword by dramaturg <a href="https://coriellison.com/" title="https://coriellison.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Cori Ellison</a>, REARRANGED is not just a heart-wrenching medical odyssey, but ultimately a joyous personal journey of transformation.
