Nohow On: Company, Ill Seen Ill Said, Worstward Ho: Three Novels

In Beckett's fiction, every other word serves to snap the reader back to consciousness. --The New York Times Book Review


my innate feeling that everybody is under-qualified to comment on this literature is my perverse justification for commenting on this literature. once you weave your way into the strange world of late samuel beckett, there is a universal beauty and humour inherent in the seeming despair of these short pieces. it is work seemingly void of the thought-provoking trivialities (oxymoron as it is) that can inflict becketts longer, earlier novels, however much i loved them. of course, this work requires much thought and effort but it seems to transcend this in recurring moments of recognition. it is these peaceful moments that encapsulate the beauty of literature and elevate it to realms beyond philosophical speculation. just my two cents. ill-shared. --Reviewer: orpen from ireland
