| Summary | "Elkan Lubliner, American" by Montague Glass is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the character Elkan Lubliner and his experiences as he navigates life as an immigrant in America. The narrative explores themes of family, cultural challenges, and the dynamics of business relationships in a humorous and engaging manner. The opening of the book introduces us to Marcus Polatkin and Philip Scheikowitz, partners in a clothing business, as they discuss family matters related to Philip's brother-in-law, who is trying to emigrate from Russia. Their conversation is filled with humor and cultural references that illustrate their backgrounds and the immigrant experience. The focus soon shifts to the arrival of Philip's nephew, Elkan Lubliner, who is expected to come work at their store. However, complications arise when it is revealed that Elkan's father has gambled away the money sent for his passage, prompting questions about family honor and trust. This sets the tone for the unfolding drama, highlighting family ties, identity challenges, and the comedic misunderstandings of immigrant life in America.
