Not sure if 'Metathesized" is a word, but I'm referring to metathesis, the
process of letter reversal that has given us so many wonderful words.
Specifically, the list of books to validate contains the following entry:
Women and Money, by Suze Roman.
Suze, of course, is pronounced Suzy, but more importantly, her last name
is Orman, not Roman.
Had the chance to meet her at a book signing in Minneapolis, and she
couldn't have projected more genuine warmth! Anyway, I didn't atempt to
correct this, as it may not make a difference at this stage, but perhaps
it does.
How about, "The Rise and Fall of the Ormn Empire?"
