    A mother who sacrifices and loves her daughter beyond reason, the daughter who complains. Relatable right? What happened to the lovey dovie days? What happens when you realize you've completely lost your identity in being a parent? An incredibly funny and fascinating exploration of all of it. Fantastic!

    A theatrical dissection of a protagonist's personality with the use of "head characters" has never been done in such a bold, innovative fashion as in this tour-de-force by Daly. The author chronicles the unraveling of the main character's psyche with dazzling stage-craft that keeps you completely unprepared for what is coming next. You have probably never seen a refrigerator function as such a vital character. And within it all is a poignant study of a woman's difficult relationships with her mother and daughter. A staged version would be absolutely stunning.
