The con artist Felix Krull meets a young marquis who maintains an undesirable romantic relationship for his family. To break it off, his parents give him a large sum of money and impose a trip around the world on him, with the only requirement being that he writes to them from all the stops on his journey. Felix suggests to the marquis that he replace him. Thus, he travels as the marquis, while the real one stays close to his beloved.
"In the book "Confessions of Felix Krull, Confidence Man," Thomas Mann's ironic critique and self-critique introduces a completely original and new theme: in today's world of bourgeois decay, only the con artist can enjoy his personality." (Georg Lukács)
