This is a collection of essays by Beckett, the poet of the post-structuralist age in which he is shown to have created an imaginative universe that has already taken into account so much of the new thinkng. The editors reveal how his continuing flow of enigmatic texts, together with his earlier work, present the reader with a challenge that only the most recent developments of critical method have come close to meeting. Lance St John Butler also wrote "Thomas Hardy", "Samuel Beckett", "The Meaning of Being"and "Studying Thomas Hardy". Together Lance St John Butler and Robin J.Davis have edited "Make Sense Who May: Essays on Samuel Beckett's Later Plays".
