Obstetrician-gynecologist Nancy Mullion must go before a medical tribunal to evaluate whether she can continue to practice medicine after performing a botched surgery that put a patient in a critically ill coma. The reader can almost feel Nancy’s anxiety over her patient’s prognosis and whether she will be 'undoctored.' This doctor tackles her profession as an abortion provider head-on for the first time during four weeks of rigorous questioning and allegations. She explains how it saves lives while having a devastating effect on her own. Creating an emotionally charged depiction of one woman’s life, Dirty Work weaves together recollections of Nancy’s childhood and youth in both England and America; She is liberated, as all women can be, by the sharing of stories that seem impossible to tell. Gabriel Weston has written a work that is incredibly unique, brave, and profound.
