| + | This collection of Alain Badiou’s essays on Samuel Beckett is a deliberate intellectual challenge to conventional Beckett scholarship. These essays trace the development of Beckett’s art—from his first works through the claustrophobic world of ''The Unnameable'' to a final engagement with questions of ''Other and Love''. Badiou rejects the stereotypical view of Beckett as the dark existentialist rather, he claims that the lesson of Beckett is one of moderation, precision, and courage. | ||
