A sharp‑witted comedy unfolds in turn-of‑the‑century Budapest, where a parade of gentlemen—bankers, officers, dilettantes—are drawn together by a single, absurd command: “Find the woman.” Their pursuits lead them through smoky cafés, grand opera houses and the tangled backstreets of the city, each encounter exposing the vanity, greed and bewilderment that fuel their quests. The narrative spins from one eccentric pairing to the next, treating the chase as both a social satire and a playful puzzle.

The novel’s voice is brisk and ironic, peppered with witty observations about fashion, finance and the endless games of courtship. By the end of the opening act, listeners will have met a roster of colorful figures—an overconfident financier, a dour police detective, a flamboyant aristocrat—all united by their baffling yet relentless hunt. The story invites you to wonder whether the “woman” they seek is a person, a concept, or simply a mirror for their own pretensions.
