Fiction
When cabdriver Dave Rudman’s wife of five years deserts him
for another man, taking their only child with her, he is
thrown into a tailspin of doubt and discontent. Fearing his
son will never know his father, Dave pens a gripping
text—part memoir, part deranged philosophical treatise, and
part handbook of “the Knowledge” learned by all London cab
drivers. Meant for the boy when he comes of age, the book
captures the frustration and anxiety of modern life. Five
hundred years later, the Book of Dave is discovered by the
inhabitants on the island of Ham, where it becomes a sacred
text of biblical proportion, and its author is revered as a
mighty prophet.
