Zero's Neighbour is Helene Cixous's tribute to theminimalist genius
of the artist in exile who courted nothingness inhis writing like
nobody else: Samuel Beckett. In this unabashedlypersonal odyssey
through a sizeable range of his novels, plays andpoems, Cixous
celebrates Beckett s linguistic flair and thepoignant, powerful
thrust of his stylistic terseness, andpassionately declares her
love for his unrivalled expression of themeaningless precious
little of life, its unfathomablebanality ending in chaos and death.
Poised between a critical essayand a textual performance across two
languages adapting Beckett'sown literary vein, this book will
appeal to scholars, critics andcreative writers as well as students
of the greyself-Sam . Its allusive intertextual insights will also
proveto be of critical relevance to readers of Dante and Proust,
amongother literary figures, as much as to those appreciative
ofCixous s own inimitable genius for dissecting thequintessence of
the life and works of a neighbourly artist.
