Collects Stan Gontarski's finest essays on the work of Samuel
Beckett over a forty-year periodRepresenting a profound engagement
with the work of Samuel Beckett, this volume gathers the very best
of Stan Gontarski's Beckett criticism on practical, theoretical and
critical levels. Such a range suggests a multiplicity of approaches
to a body of work itself multiple, produced by an artist who
underwent any number of transformations and reinventions over his
long writing career. Many of the essays collected here explore
Beckett's debt to his age, Beckett very much a product of a culture
in transition, which change he would help foster. But much of
Beckett's creative struggle was to find a new way, his own way.
Most of the essays that comprise this volume detail that struggle,
toward a way we now call Beckettian.Key FeaturesIncludes 24
