“The Seventh Wife” is perhaps Efimov’s most fascinating novel. This is an amazing fusion of genres - philosophical and adventure. The pace and eventful intensity of the action movie are combined with a precise and wisely ironic understanding of the psychology of relationships between Men and Women. Americans and Russians, millionaires and lumpens, intellectuals and terrorists, and in the center the hero is the husband of seven wives, the genius of the insurance business Anton Sebezh, who sets off on a deadly journey to find his daughter.
