I think I'm too dumb for this book. 
I truly don't understand most of what I read and the ending was extra confusing. I need someone to break that down for me. 

What I thought I was getting was a book about a director with chronic pain and a pill addiction trying to put on the play All's Well That Ends Well but her cast is hellbent on doing Macbeth. 

Instead, I got a lot of droning on and on about chronic pain, potentially a deal with the devil and lots of magic? Or was she just going crazy? 

I also don't know what I was supposed to get out of this. What is the lesson? Enjoy life, enjoy your youth? I'm just not sure.
