It's hard to precis this story, but let's just say it involves a Harvard law professor who meets a woman in a hardware store (in one of the many impossible-to-invent details, the fact that she is wearing a dress is a key part of her allure), becomes involved with her, in a way, and also caught up with her transgender friend - and then it all goes horribly, horribly wrong. It is a cracking story and so much of the delight resides in the details that I shouldn't tell you more.
There is a further irony. At a point when he was feeling more friendly towards his on-off girlfriend's transgender friend, the professor wrote this weirdly odd piece speaking ill of the late Justice Scalia - but accurately describing himself as a naive fool.
