Featured review
Useless, Maybe, Worthless, Definitely, Beautiful Without a Doubt
The man on the desk at the Lost & Found office at the railway station is told that no one wants that junk, so they don't want him.
This wasn't nominated for the 2018, but was included in the Oscar-Nominated Shorts show, and the reasons why are clear. It's arty -- monochrome in sepia -- it's from a country that had no nominations -- Australia -- and, well, it's quirky and amusing in an antiquarian way. I've just gone through a patch of rereading Avram Davidson, a man who was so erudite that he had to invent empires in 19th Europe to warehouse his ideas. I've never read a piece of his that involved a Lost & Found office, which strikes me as just peculiar, but then everything about Davidson was peculiar, although charmingly so, and far more colorful than this sepia effort.
Which, however, I enjoyed greatly and recommend to you. As I do Mr. Davidson's writing. Although I advise you, when reading him, to read him aloud. Silent, he makes no sense. Aloud, well, that's precisely how people talk.
