Samuel Beckett - Waiting for Godot

Waiting for Godot has become one of the most important and enigmatic plays of the past 50 years and a cornerstone of 20th-century drama. This bilingual edition is in honor of the centenary of Beckett's birth. Originally written in French, Beckett translated the work himself, and in doing so chose to revise and eliminate various passages. With side-by-side text the reader can experience the mastery of Beckett's language and explore the nuances of his creativity. Upon being asked who Godot is, Samuel Beckett told Alan Schneider, "If I knew, I would have said so in the play."

Fiction and humour writer Brett invents what might have been found in the imaginary wastepaper baskets of the famous and great from history. Things could have been very different if King Arthur had figured out the seating plan for a square table, if Picasso hadn't received the wrong prescription for his spectacles or if Ronald Reagan hadn't misspelled 'unclear' as 'nuclear' in his lost letter to Gorbachev

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are DeadAcclaimed as a modern dramatic masterpiece, "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" is the fabulously inventive tale of "Hamlet" as told from the worm's-eye view of the bewildered Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two minor characters in Shakespeare's play. In Tom Stoppard's best-known work, this Shakespearean Laurel and Hardy finally get a chance to take the lead role, but do so in a world where echoes of "Waiting for Godot" resound, where reality and illusion intermix, and where fate leads our two heroes to a tragic but inevitable end.
