| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The book studies the existentialist concerns in Irish playwright and novelist Samuel Beckett's works-the evanescence of life; time and eternity; the individual's sense of loneliness and alienation as a result of the impossibility of establishing genuine communication and contact with others; the mystery of self. The book also studies his pioneering works in genre of "The Theatre of Absurd," including End Game, Waiting For Godot, Krapp's Last Tape, Happy Days, Play, Not I, That Time, and Footfalls.
