from John Banville’s review of the 2nd volume of Samuel Beckett’s letters, in the latest New York Review of Books:
“The so-called trilogy of novels, Molloy, Malone Dies, and The Unnamable … are the masterworks of his middle period and surely his most representative achievement in prose. Here at last he found a means of allowing the darkness Krapp had “always struggled to keep under” to spread over the page like so much spilled ink.”
