Az üvegcipő : Vígjáték három felvonásban

"Lord Lister No. 0037: De Diamantenkoningin" by Kurt Matull and Theo von Blankensee is a pulp detective adventure serial written in the early 20th century. The story likely follows the gentleman-thief Lord Lister in a jewel-centered caper—suggested by “The Diamond Queen”—featuring cunning heists, elegant deceptions, and a tense battle of wits with determined pursuers. The opening of the work portrays a lively, often comic domestic world in a Budapest boardinghouse: Irma, a tender, impulsive young maid, fusses over the gruff tenant Sipos while being scolded by her employer Adél and teased by other lodgers. As Irma’s adoration of Sipos spills into naïve, poetic declarations, Adél, entangled with the charming Császár, resolves to force a marriage with Sipos to save herself from a ruinous love affair. A sharp confrontation follows: Adél presses Sipos to wed, he resists, she admits her consuming feelings for Császár, and tempers flare when Császár appears. After the quarrel, Sipos retreats to a nap, and Irma’s quiet, devoted care closes the scene; the next act opens amid a bustling wedding feast in the yard, with guests, servants, and neighbors juggling coffee, wine, and gossip as the celebration continues.
