rating:
Gabriel Josipovici had written a very good foreword for the trilogy. I am trying to get accustomed to Samuel Beckett's langauge. Though after reading James Joyce's book find this not too difficult.
I am not so familiar with Beckett's theatrical works as the theatrical art too. What I know is that Beckett wrote "En Attendent Godot" as an intermediate work between he had written "Molloy" and "Malone dies" and preparing to write "the Unnamable". Beckett's language is even more attractive than James Joyce. I confess that it was not totally correct, that I used to think that Beckett's fictions were too austere. It is not belle lettres, indeed, but best reflect the mindset of modern people.
