This volume brings together three of Nobel Prize winner Samuel
Beckett's major short stories and thirteen shorter pieces of
fiction that he calls "texts for nothing." Here, as in all his
work, Beckett relentlessly strips away all but the essential to
arrive at a core of truth. His prose reveals the same mastery that
marks his work from Waiting for Godot and Endgame to Molloy and
Malone Dies. In each of the three stories, old men displaced or
expelled from the modest corners where they have been living bestir
themselves in search of new corners. Told, "You can't stay here,"
they somehow, doggedly, inevitably, go on.
Includes:
"The Expelled"
"The Calmative"
"The End"
Texts for Nothing (1-10)
