Nohow on: Company, Ill Seen Ill Said, and Worstward Ho

Bag om Nohow on: Company, Ill Seen Ill Said, and Worstward Ho

Collected here in one volume, Samuel Beckett's three novels, which are among the most beautiful and disquieting of his later prose works, come together with the powerful resonance of his famous "Three Novels" "Molloy," "Malone Dies," "The Unnamable."In "Company," a voice comes to "one on his back in the dark" and speaks to him, describing significant moments in life, and yet we are told it is all a fable, memories or figments devised or imagined for the sake of company. "Ill Seen Ill Said" focuses attention on an old woman in a cabin who is part of the objects, landscape, rhythms, and movements of an incomprehensible universe. And in "Worstward Ho," Beckett explores a tentative, uncertain existence in a world devoid of rational meaning and purpose. Here is language pared down to its most expressive, confirming Beckett's position as one of the great writers of our time.
