Roger Dodger
This story is set against Manhattan’s bright lights. It takes a humorous, urbane look into the male ego in war with the singles scene trenches. Roger Swanson, a hopelessly delusional advertising copywriter who boasts a sharp wit and believes that he is an expert at manipulating women, is undoubtedly cynical. Roger’s world of casual sex and smooth talking begins to crumble when Nick, his teenage nephew, surprises him. In an effort to resolve the matter of Nick’s virginity once and for all Nick asks Roger to teach him how to seduce women. Roger takes on the task of guiding Nick through London’s nightlife to teach him the basics. However, he soon realizes that even though he is an adult, a lot still remains to be learned about women and what they want. Sujit R.Varma
