FAQ About Samuel Beckett

Samuel Beckett was unique in that he wrote in both English and French, often translating his works between the two languages. Starting in the late 1940s, he began writing primarily in French, feeling that it allowed him a more distilled and precise use of language. Some of his notable French works include "En attendant Godot" (the original French version of "Waiting for Godot") and the novel "Molloy."
