Book Synopsis

From first to last, argues Weller (English, St. Hilda's College, Oxford), Irish-born French playwright and novelist Beckett's art concerns itself with the thought of an end to what he himself once described as the suffering of being, but which can more accurately be called the suffering of ever-less-than-being.
