Samuel Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1969; his literary output of plays, novels, stories and poetry has earned him an uncontested place as one of the greatest writers of our time."Endgame," originally written in French and translated into English by Beckett himself, is considered by many critics to be his greatest single work. A pinnacle of Beckett's characteristic raw minimalism, it is a pure and devastating distillation of the human essence in the face of approaching death.

This collection of Nobel Prize winner Samuel Beckett's dramatic pieces includes a short stage play, two radio plays, and two pantomimes. The stage play"Krapp's Last Tape"evolves a shattering drama out of a monologue of a man who, at age sixty-nine, plays back the autobiographical tape he recorded on his thirty-ninth birthday. The two radio plays were commissioned by the BBC;"All That Fall""plumbs the same pessimistic depths [as"Waiting for Godot"] in what seems a no less despairing search for human dignity" (London"Times"), and"Embers"is equally unforgettable theater, born of the ramblings of an old man and his wife. Finally, in the two pantomimes, Beckett takes drama to the point of pure abstraction with his portrayals of, in"Act Without Words I," frustrated desired, and in"Act Without Words I," corresponding motions of living juxtaposed in the slow despair of one man and the senselessly busy motion of another.

Stick Fly

Arguably the darkest of all Shakespeare's plays, Macbeth is also one of the most challenging. Is it a work of nihilistic despair, "a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing," or is it a cautionary tale warning of the dangers of Machiavellianism and relativism? Does it lead to hell and hopelessness, or does it point to a light beyond the darkness? This critical edition of Shakespeare's classic psychological drama contains essays by some of today's leading critics, exploring Macbeth as a morality play, as a history play with contemporary relevance, and as a drama that shows a vision of evil and that grapples with the problem of free will.

Praise for David Grene and Richmond Lattimore's "Complete Greek Tragedies" "This is it. No qualifications. Go out and buy it everybody."--Kenneth Rexroth, "Nation " "The translations deliberately avoid the highly wrought and affectedly poetic; their idiom is contemporary. . . .
