Easy to read and extremely interesting. Can be partly compared to "Confessions of Felix Krull" of Thomas Mann but IMHO Felix Krull is not even close to this and not only because Felix Krull is unfinished. I think this one is much more interesting, fun and realistic.|||Kvachi is... an international con-man, through whose eyes we see Europe and Russia as nothing but a rogue's hunting ground.... The abrupt, sardonic prose brims over with inventiveness. (Donald Rayfield The Literature of Georgia)
|If you read
This is, in brief, the story of a swindler, a Georgian Felix Krull, or perhaps a cynical Don Quixote, named Kvachi Kvachantiradze: womanizer, cheat, perpetrator of insurance fraud, bank-robber, associate of Rasputin, filmmaker, revolutionary, and pimp. Though originally denounced as pornographic, Kvachi's tale is one of the great classics of twentieth-century Georgian literature--and a hilarious romp to boot.
