Manhattan Transfer narrates fragments of the life of a vast gallery
of characters whose common denominator is the space and time in
which they move, the New York of the twenties, as well as the main
objective of most of them: obtaining money as fast and easy as
possible. What marks a clear dividing line between them is the
height at which they place their moral ready. The fact that the
characters represent the most diverse social layers (dock workers,
waiters in large hotels, prostitutes, alcohol traffickers, lawyers,
trade unionists...) and the most distant origins (French, Irish,
Caribbean, etc.) confer to this work the monumental character
portrait of a city. Â
