Hertz Minsker, a Jewish immigrant, self-proclaimed intellectual and outright charlatan, lives at the expense of real estate magnate Morris Kálisher, a childhood friend. Inveterate seducer, he is married for the fourth time to the charming Bronie and has an affair with Minne, Morris's wife, in the same beards as their respective spouses. However, the irruption of Minne's first husband into their lives with the plan to sell Morris several forgeries of paintings by Picasso and Chagall will shake the delicate balance of their particular house of cards, giving rise to humorous disagreements and misunderstandings in the wake of the best Lubitsch. Originally serialized in the New York newspaper Forverts, The Seducer is a fast-paced sitcom and an extraordinary portrait of Jewish immigrant life in 1940s New York. A great novel about exile, the uprooting and statelessness.
