Rezensionen

'Here is a book which, as soon as I could get sight of a copy, I could not stop myself reading straight through, nothing being more urgent to me ... The temptation is only to quote. There is so much here of great value to those who study Beckett ... Every word Beckett wrote as only he could write it. That is why, as Dan Gunn says in his excellent introduction to this final volume, though the writing of letters can seem like a diversion from, or even obstruction of, his work, 'the writing of letters is also that work'. Now we can read them. This is a great piece of publication.' David Sexton, The Evening Standard
