More than eighty riffs, rants, and microfictions by two old bums, er, that is, masters—perfectly complemented by the avant-comic artistry of T. Motley.Renowned throughout Europe and with books translated into fourteen languages, Raymond Federman is considered a major figure in world literature. In The Twilight of the Bums he teams with fellow-innovative fiction pioneer George Chambers (the two share the same birthday and shoe size) for a collaborative send-up of buddy-fictions from Waiting for Godot on down. At turns tender, hilarious, iconoclastic, and maddening, Twilight of the Bums is exemplary of the lettres-de-merde style Federman has designated laughterature.
