Produktbeschreibung
The voice traverses Beckett s work in its entirety, defining its space and its structure. Emanating from an indeterminate source situated outside the narrators and characters, while permeating the very words they utter, it proves to be incessant. It can alternatively be violently intrusive, or embody a calming presence. Literary creation will be charged with transforming the mortification it inflicts into a vivifying relationship to language.

Far from seeking to impose a rigid and purely abstract framework, this study aims to highlight the singularity and complexity of Beckett s work, and to outline a potentially vast field of investigation
