Мой дядюшка Освальд

Episodes from the life of the attractive swindler and womanizer Uncle Oswald, based on the diaries of "the biggest fornicator of all time." The life of this adventurer is full of surprises even for a sophisticated bon vivant - Dahl managed to create his most "easy" comic novel.

“From time to time I feel an irresistible desire to remember my uncle Oswald ... a man of the finest taste, a bon vivant, a collector of spiders, scorpions and canes, an opera connoisseur and a connoisseur of Chinese porcelain, a seducer of women and, without any doubt, a record holder of all times and peoples in regarding extramarital affairs. Any other known contender for this title is laughable when compared to my Uncle Oswald. Especially poor old Casanova. Next to Uncle Oswald, he seems like a man suffering from a serious violation of the function of the sexual organ.
