Beckett, Samuel Barclay, 1906- .
How It Is [Comment c'est]. Translated from the French by the author.
Publisher: Grove Press, NY [1964]. 'Seventh printing'. Evergreen E-388. 147 p.; 20.5 cm. First published 1961 by Les Editions de Minuit, Paris. Hugh Kenner, on the rear cover, says of this piece of 20th century literature, "What is novel is the absolute sureness of design... built phrase by phrase into a beautifully and tightly wrought structure-- a few dozen expressions permuted with deliberate redundancy accumulate meaning even as they are emptied of it, and offer themselves as points of radiation in a strange web of utter illusion." Paper covers worn, page edges slightly browned; VG. Stock#21732.
