      Karoo is a professional fixer of other people's scripts and, by his own acknowledgement, he ruins them all. Calamity and comedy follows shambolic Saul Karoo as his life breaks down. He is a man prone to luck both good and bad, and when a young woman with a strange connection to his past shows up, the plot of his own life comes into sharp focus.

      Oscar-winning writer Steve Tesich masterfully creates and destroys the sad, mad world of Saul Karoo.

      Karoo is an alcoholic who can''t get drunk, a loving father who can''t bear to be alone with his son, a fixer of film scripts who admits that he ruins every one of them.

      Calamity and comedy accompany Saul on his odyssey through sex, death and showbusiness as he seeks to ''fix'' both a master director''s greatest film and his own broken life at the same time.
