Afterword: 'the skull the skull the skull the skull in Connemara': Beckett, Ireland and elsewhere Andrew Gibson; Bibliography; Index "Beckett and Ireland is the first volume of essays devoted exclusively to the topic of Beckett's vexed relationship with his homeland. It provides compelling evidence of the continuing relevance of Ireland to Beckett's writing long after he left for wartime France. Each essay is written by a leading Beckett scholar, and presents new insights into a wide range of approaches and topics. The volume offers a fresh perspective, providing a genuine step forward in the understanding and appreciation of these texts. It is essential reading for Beckettians, Modernists, and those interested in Irish writing"--Provided by publisher |
