Book excerpt: Elaine Wavering has become inured to a life of stagnant middle-class routine. On one particular morning, however, a bizarre confession from her upright, regimented husband throws her neat and tidy existence into complete disarray. Simultaneously, a rupture in the waste-disposal unit of their kitchen sink inadvertently leads to a shocking encounter that upends her quiet existence in ways that would have previously seemed unimaginable. As she seeks solace and guidance from her semi-estranged sister, Elaine must now look beyond her world of petit bourgeois respectability and contend with real-life events that are rapidly engulfing her in a vortex of existential crisis. A one-act version of Kitchen Sink Drama premiered at New York's Manhattan Theatre Source in 2009.
