In this revealing and poignant collection, Gussow paints a portrait of Samuel Beckett, the novelist and playwright whose body of work is unmatched for its intensity and cohesiveness. Although Beckett never allowed an interview, he did talk informally with Gussow over a ten-year period. Conversations with and about Beckett includes those encounters, with talk of actors, directors, the general state of the theater, art, life -- and tennis. The conversations, previously unpublished, show the reputedly austere author as modest, humorous, and open-minded but always precise and revealing about his own work, which he discusses with great acuity.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Grove Pr","offers":[{"title":"Conversations on Beckett (Grove Press) | Mel Gussow | Hardcover | 9780802115935 | Used: Like New | Literary Criticism 1702143","offer_id":48742194446488,"sku":"1702143","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/51lwwjtxfML.jpg?v=1773849712","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/conversations-on-beckett-grove-press","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
