The relationship between a handsome young broker
and a lovely young curator
is in trouble.
Before they can marry, he must
come to tolerate,
then feel guarded affection for
a good natured buffoon
who populates dioramas
with stuffed mouse couples in period dress,
then for an assortment of others,
some less likeable,
who also take passionate interest
in an activity that generates no profit

Your support makes stories like this possible

From Minneapolis to Venezuela, from Gaza to Washington, DC, this is a time of staggering chaos, cruelty, and violence. 

Unlike other publications that parrot the views of authoritarians, billionaires, and corporations, The Nation publishes stories that hold the powerful to account and center the communities too often denied a voice in the national media—stories like the one you’ve just read.

Each day, our journalism cuts through lies and distortions, contextualizes the developments reshaping politics around the globe, and advances progressive ideas that oxygenate our movements and instigate change in the halls of power. 

This independent journalism is only possible with the support of our readers. If you want to see more urgent coverage like this, please donate to The Nation today.
