Joyleg by Ward Moore and Avram Davidson
I haven't read anything else by Ward Moore, but Avram Davidson is been one of my favorite writers for a couple of years. This is one of his best novels the collaboration was good for him. The front cover painting is nice, but totally irrelevant. The back cover blurb is exaggerative, but doesn't give away too much of the plot. Indeed, there isn't much plot to give away. A female Republican representative and a male Democrat representative discover the file of a veteran of an unspecified war who has been receiving a pension of eleven dollars a month as far back as the current records show. The Hon. Lucinda Rose Habersham (R., Tenn.) decides it is a fraud to be exposed, someone using a long-dead veteran's name to leech off the pension fund. The Hon. Tully Weathercox (D., Tenn.) declares it is an insult to throw a measly eleven dollars a month to someone who has fought and bled to defend his country's freedom. They independently decide to leave during recess and search out Isachar Joyleg. They find him. The second half of the book is devoted to what happens when Joyleg's actual age is made public. The novel's excellence comes mainly from its dialogue and characterization. If you're looking for a fast-moving adventure story, look elsewhere. If you like hilarious satire and Old Men of the Wandering Jew/"The Gnarly Man"/Lazarus Long type, make a diligent search for

    The AVRAM DAVIDSON Website
    Henry Wessells
    These paragraphs do not comprise a well-ordered critical essay about Avram Davidson's work. They are an attempt to express some of my enthusiasm and delight. In late 1992 I first read a battered but intact copy of The Enquiries of Doctor Eszterhazy paperback. I was surprised, again and again. The rambling sentences and digressions impressed me, but most of all it was the way in which Avram integrates obscure and bizarre knowledge into these stories: knowledge that in anyone else's hands would be dusty and uninteresting or an info-dump (technique invented, perhaps, by Jules Verne) that strangled or squashed the flow of language. I went to all the right schools and have read lots of books, but Avram was genuinely learned, as even a single sentence taken at random will reveal. There is a healthy measure of irreverence to temper this erudition, so that one is not oppressed by the weight of information.
    I do not count myself among the ranks of the academicians. This website is a portmanteau, Humpty Dumpty piece of scholarship, one writer's response to another writer's work, full of quirks and deviations from the straight furrows of traditional academic scholarship. Avram Davidson's writings contain and call for a good measure of delirium: not incoherence or ignorance, but the inspired capacity to follow an idea, a phrase or a cadence in a new direction, to take a point a little bit further than its simply logical conclusion. His work at its best (the Vergil and Peregrine books, the Limekiller and Esterhazy stories) is incredibly fresh and rich, each sentence resonant with suggestions of the complexity and concreteness of the worlds described.
