Description
Samuel Beckett's literary career is usually divided into three phases: the early Beckett with poems and prose works, dating from 1930, the mature Beckett with novels like Molloy and plays like Waiting for Godot, dating from the late 1940s, and the late Beckett with ever shorter 'dramaticules' and prose pieces like Not I, Company, or Stirrings Still, dating from 1965. In this context, much attention has been paid to the transition from the first to the second phase because this shift marked the change from a clever young writer in the tradition of James Joyce to the world-famous author of black humour and absurdist existentialism (as he was perceived in the 1950s). It was a transformation from a witty satirist using all the resources of his native English to a writer treating themes of intellectual poverty and impotence who turned to French as a means of conveying these subjects adequately. Many critics have claimed that this change was the result of a supposed revelation experience dating from early 1946. I want to suggest that this is not the whole truth but that an important factor was the influence of Flann O'Brien's novel At Swim-Two-Birds, which Beckett read in 1939, a crucial time during which he did not know what to do with himself as a writer.
