About
Kariera Nikodema Dyzmy is a 1932 Polish bestselling novel by Tadeusz Dolega-Mostowicz. Nicodemus Dyzma is a small-town man who comes to the Polish capital from the Eastern provinces in search of work. While walking the streets of Warsaw, he finds a lost invitation to a party reception. At the reception, he befriends a Member of Parliament and wins the hearts of guests with his attitude. He is introduced to a wealthy landowner by the name of Kunicki, a former con artist, who is so impressed by Dyzma that he offers him a job as superintendent of his country estate.
