Three Novels: Molloy, Malone Dies, the Unnamable
A**D
Something different and entertaining.
I agree with the consensus on here that these are quite a departure from traditional novels. They are not however, particularly difficult to read or understand, and they are very entertaining, even laugh out loud funny at times.The style of writing is in one continuous prose; the punctuation is minimal, but this actually makes the book much easier and faster to read. Thoughts form more naturally for the reader, as was the intention with the stream of consciousness style.The price was quite high, but you're getting a lot of material for your money, basically theee complete novels.

stream of consciousness grim existentialist 20th century writing. can be hard going due to the format (and lack of formatting) however it serves a literary purpose.

Best is Molloy.
The author lacked imagination and inspiration after Molloy. Seemed so to me. Good edition.

To be read in a quiet room, alone.
These three novels are the best things I have read all year. Beckett is neglected to the detriment of Western Civilization. These are at the top of my 'read it again' pile. Also, this edition sat nicely in my hand as I read. The heft, the boards, the paper, and even the little gold ribbon bookmark made it a pleasure to hold and read. It balanced the bourbon that I held in my other hand.
