Dialogues on Beckett

"The book is based on the thesis that Beckett's main concern in his plays is Christian theology or, more broadly, the religious interpretation of the world.

The aim of the book is to make the reader aware of this essential theme in his work, to interpret it in this light and to show his original approach to the subject. Beckett argues that we live in a post-Christian era. But for him this knowledge is no reason for joy; rather, it is a source of sadness, fear and even despair"--
