Very cool, thanks for posting.

@wilshashe Anthony Cronin also wrote an excellent biography on Beckett called "The last modernist." I've read Knowlson's and I'm a little partial to Cronin.

More thanks for this

Now, that was a scary Tapir 'discussion'...sort of good intro for the Halloween Night...

@Mattfinish88 Start with Murphy, then perhaps Waiting for Godot, Then Mercier and Camier, try some of the poetry, Act Without Words I, Krapp's Last Tape, then hit the trilogy, Molloy, Malone Dies, and the Unnamable. Also, if you would like to understand Beckett as a writer and a person James Knowlson's Damned to Fame.

I hate the knowing laughter of people in the audience ...

Good to hear these kinds of informed comments by such a distinguished ensemble. Too bad she addresses each person by pointing, "YOU!' not by their names, with the sole exception of John Turturro. The moderator is not very becoming, no matter the wonderful introduction she, 'whoever she was', received. Waiting for . . .

@wgaule Yeah - the I'm so smart and intellectually privy to this great art. I get the joke laugh - am'nt I smart.
