On a dark and stormy night, two mysterious women invade an unnamed narrator's house, where they proceed to ruthlessly question their host's gender and identity. The increasingly frantic protagonist fails to defend his supposed masculinity and eventually finds himself in a sanatorium. This is a gothic tale of destabilized male-female binaries and subverted literary tropes. -- Provided by publisher.
