Description: John Pilling, editor of the Cambridge Companion to Beckett, re-evaluates Beckett's formative years between the publication of his first work in 1929 and, in late 1946, the composition of The Calmative, his last work before the 'trilogy.' This book offers an account of Beckett's early development, and shows how his artistic growth was linked to his attraction to failure. Pilling's treatment of the first two decades of Beckett's career offers a critical narrative of his development, linking biographical fact with close readings to enhance our understanding of this influential author.
