They prevail on her to submit to surgery, even though she is happy living in the world she's fashioned. Molly is plunged into a world of shapes and colors, but loses the world she once knew. "Molly Sweeney" is a philosophical study posing as a medical case.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br></div> <div class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Lucida Grande"; color:black">Related in Friel's extraordinary style of overlapping monologues, Molly's story is told as each of the three characters sees it.
