Una rivisitazione del Mercante di Venezia di Shakespeare, dal vincitore del Man Booker Prize e nostro grande cronista della vita ebraica. "Chi è questo tizio, papà? Cosa ci fa qui?" Con una moglie assente e una figlia che sta deragliando, il ricco collezionista d'arte e filantropo Simon Strulovitch ha bisogno di qualcuno con cui parlare. Così, quando incontra Shylock in un cimitero nel Triangolo d'oro del Cheshire, lo invita a casa sua. È l'inizio di una straordinaria amicizia. "Jacobson è semplicemente un maestro della precisione comica. Scrive come un sogno" Evening Standard "Il più divertente romanziere britannico dopo Kingsley Amis o Tom Sharpe" Mail on Sunday.
