King Solomon

Synopsis

'Gary's narrator is young and streetwise: big, handsome taxi-driver Jean, who one day picks up 84-year-old Mr. Solomon, a dapper, wealthy gent devoted to helping the unfortunate--in a world full of "injustice," a world forsaken by a cruel God. Most of Solomon's apartment has been turned over to a suicide-hotline service. He hires Jean to be his fulltime driver/errand-boy, delivering anonymous gifts to those fallen on hard times.
