Item #27095 Beckett/Beckett: The Classic Study of a Modern Genius. Literature, Vivian Mercier.

Beckett/Beckett: The Classic Study of a Modern Genius.

London: Souvenir Press, 1990. First Printing of the First UK Edition. A Very Good plus copy with remainder stripe in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. This classic study of the novelist and playwright Samuel Beckett has been noted for its refreshingly personal approach and its many new insights. A personal approach is blended skillfully with a persuasive dialectical discussion of the complex paradoxes in Beckett's writings—gentleman/tramp, intellect/emotion, Ireland/the World, eye/ear, artist/philosopher, man/woman. It also presents a lively, almost irreverent study of women in Beckett's work. Item #27095
