The Clean House by Sarah Ruhl
3.0
This was a strange read, but in the best possible way. I'd watch it live only for Charles 'inspired medicine' monologue.
There once was a very great American surgeon named Halsted. He was married to a nurse. He loved her-- immeasurably. One day Halsted noticed that his wife's hands were chapped and red when she came back from surgery. And so he invented rubber gloves. For her. It is one of the great love stories in medicine. The difference between inspired medicine and uninspired medicine is love.
When I met Ana, I knew: I loved her to the point of invention
