{"product_id":"the-letters-of-samuel-beckett-samuel-beckett-9780521867955","title":"The Letters of Samuel Beckett: Volume 3, 1957-1965","description":"This third volume of The Letters of Samuel Beckett focuses on the years when Beckett is striving to find a balance between the demands put upon him by his growing international fame, and his need for the peace and silence from which new writing might emerge. This is the period in which Beckett launches into work for radio, film and, later, into television. It also marks his return to writing fiction, with his first major piece for a decade, Comment c'est (How It Is). Where hitherto he has been reticent about the writing process, now he devotes letter after letter to describing and explaining his work in progress. For the first time Beckett has a woman as his major correspondent: a relationship shown in his intense and abundant letters to Barbara Bray. The volume also provides critical introductions, chronologies, explanatory notes and profiles of Beckett's main correspondents.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Samuel Beckett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521867959\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521867955\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/18\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 816\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.70w x 1.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/11\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2014 pg. 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChronicle of Higher Education\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/21\/2014 pg. 16\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/21\/2014 pg. 26\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/02\/2015 pg. 54\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2015 pg. 1652","brand":"Samuel Beckett","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43981012238591,"sku":"9780521867955","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_85380e51-d88f-4e98-a499-3a874e55558c.jpg?v=1683253179","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-letters-of-samuel-beckett-samuel-beckett-9780521867955","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
