By Lois G. Gordon

Subjects: Beckett, samuel, 1906-1989, Nonfiction, Literary Criticism

Description: Waiting for Godot has been acclaimed as the greatest play of the twentieth century. It is also the most elusive. This book — an illuminating introduction to Beckett’s work for general readers, students, and specialists — approaches the play scene by scene, exploring the text linguistically, philosophically, critically, and biographically.
