The Theatrical Notebooks of Samuel Beckett: Waiting for Godot (Beckett, Samuel)
from Grove Press
Price: $57.00

Customer Review:

If the author was trying to effect in the reader the pain of interminable, open-ended waiting in line with no insight as to when the line might move, with no other diversions, he succeeded. I found this book excruciating to read. Imagine the dull rambling--desalinated of anything whatsoever... more info

Endgame and Act Without Words
from Grove Press
Price: $10.40

Customer Review:

Samuel Beckett, Endgame, A Play in One Act, Followed by Act Without Words, A Mime for One Player (Grove, 1958)
Samuel Beckett's plays are known for being obtuse while entertaining; Endgame is no different where this is concerned, but it is also arguably his most powerful work. We are presented... more info

Molloy, Malone Dies, The Unnamable (Everyman's Library)
from Everyman's Library
Price: $14.96

Customer Review:

Sometimes I go through long periods of time where I forget why I'm into books and writing and everything. It all seems so boring and stupid, and then life does, too. Months or years go by before I find a book like one in this trilogy.
I actually haven't finished it yet, but finishing it is the... more info

Novels I of Samuel Beckett: Volume I of The Grove Centenary Editions (Works of Samuel Beckett the Grove Centenary Editions)
from Grove Press
Price: $16.32

Customer Review:

This is a great collection of Beckett's novels, including: Murphy, Watt, and Mercier and Camier.
Noticeably missing--and noted by Paul Auster in the editor's note--is Dream of Fair to Middling Women, published post-humously. This probably points to a rights issue with the Beckett estate, but... more info

The Complete Short Prose of Samuel Beckett, 1929-1989
from Grove Press
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:

This book brings together what is the lesser-known short prose of Samuel Beckett--a surprisingly small output for so long-lived and otherwise so prolific an author. From his first published story to his last gnomic writings, this collection of texts provides a kind of comprehensive chronicle of... more info

Murphy
from Calder Publications
Price: $12.95

Customer Review:

I had to read this for class. The plot is all over the place and it is really boring. There is nothing memorable about this book and it is as mundane as watching a squirrel collect nuts for the winter...on second thought, watching a squirrel collect nuts for the winter is like going to Disney World... more info
