description: Diary of a Seducer is the disturbing narrative of a man who explores his own sense of detachment by deliberately arousing the passion of a young society girl whom he first sees fleetingly. The fundamental ambiguity at the centre of Diary of a Seducer lies in the conflict between the narrator's philosophical and intellectual search for aesthetic pleasure and the very suffering this search ultimately inflicts.
