Succeeding chapters take up the plays work by work, interpreting each individually and tracing recurrent motifs, themes, and images to show the continuity in the underlying tendencies of Beckett's mind and art."-- Provided by publisher842/.9/14Webb Eugene1938-700204MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910797857503321The plays of Samuel Beckett3782030UNINA
