Deck Dorval is a pseudonym used by three Belgian authors collaborating on detective novels written in Esperanto.[1] The authors included Frans van Dooren , Jef Beeckmans, and Jos Deckkers.[citation needed]
In their writing partnership, Van Dooren wrote, Jos Deckkers criticized and Jef Beeckmans corrected grammar and language. Their forty-year friendship was based on their mutual interests in Esperanto, philosophy, and literature.[citation needed]
After the deaths of Beeckmans (1975) and Deckkers (1979), their heirs gave van Dooren the right to finish works that the group had already been begun.[citation needed]
According to the Concise Encyclopedia of the Original Literature of Esperanto, four of Deck Dorval's novels were "reworked" by Christian René Arthur Declerk.[2]
