Book Synopsis
Beckett was deeply engaged with the visual arts and individual painters, including Jack B. Yeats, Bram van Velde, and Avigdor Arikha. In this monograph, David Lloyd explores what Beckett saw in their paintings.

Trade Review
"This highly original constellation of critical dialogues will galvanise Beckett Studies. David Lloyd both disturbs and enhances emerging debates in and among philosophical, ethical, aesthetic and political discourses, as they respond to pressures arising from neo-liberalization on understandings of human subjectivity and its representability. This book reconfigures how Samuel Beckett's work will be seen and read across a range of fields of enquiry." - Victor Merriman, Edge Hill University
