Fiction. Illustrated by Tom Motley. Culminating his life-long engagement with the work and spectre of Samuel Beckett, Raymond Federman here pairs with fellow fictionist George Chambers (Null Set & Other Stories) to create the stories and dialogues of two vagabonds musing in the long shadows of Waiting for Godot. Add brilliant drawings by cartoonist Tom Motley and you have a one-of-a-kind book, at once profound and immersed in trivia, playful and yet as serious as death. "Stan & Oliver, Frog & Toad, Bud & Lou, The Sunshine Boys, Bill & Ted, Bouvard & Pecuchet--but most of all Vladimir and Estragon--stand behind this book like defrocked priests at an inquest. Old men rule! , at least in the glimmer of a watery eye and inconstant heart"--Charles Bernstein.
