Beckett the Playwright

<p>This book first published in 1985 stresses Beckett’s success as an innovator in the theatre through a close reading and analysis of his plays. The differing backgrounds of the two authors enables them to approach Beckett’s drama in a particularly fruitful way: ‘Their analysis is clever yet level-headed readable but does not shirk complexities.’ (<i>Times Educational Supplement</i>). ‘Brilliant collection of essays on Beckett and his works.’ (<i>Irish Times</i>)</p>
