After reading an article in New York Magazine about a high-end Manhattan art dealer specializing in the sale of divine effigies, a rakish Nigerian emigre cabdriver-who has had no end of frustrations while living in New York City-plots to resolve his gambling debts and other woes by stealing the god of war from his home village in Nigeria.
