Molloy, Malone Dies, The Unnamable : A Trilogy; Introduction by Gabriel Josipovici - Thryft

Captivating journey through fragmented consciousness and existentialism.

This trilogy by Samuel Beckett is a captivating exploration of fragmented consciousness and the struggles of the human condition. Through the story of Molloy's escape and Jacques Moran's search, we are immersed in a world of uncertainty and existential ponderings. As we dive into Malone's ruminations on death and encounter the monologue of an armless and legless creature, we are confronted with the complexities of our own existence. Beckett's beautiful and mournful rhetoric will leave you both intrigued and invigorated, providing a profound experience of modernist literature.

Description

The first novel of Samuel Beckett's mordant and exhilirating midcentury trilogy intoduces us to Molloy, who has been mysteriously incarcerated, and who subsequently escapes to go discover the whereabouts of his mother. In the latter part of this curious masterwork, a certain Jacques Moran is deputized by anonymous authorities to search for the aforementioned Molloy. In the trilogy's second novel, Malone, who might or might not be Molloy himself, addresses us with his ruminations while in the act of dying. The third novel consists of the fragmented monologue - delivered, like the monologues of the previous novels, in a mournful rhetoric that possesses the utmost splendor and beauty - of what might or might not an armless and legless creature living in an urn outside an eating house. Taken together, these three novels represent the high-water mark of the literary movement we call Modernism. Within their linguistic terrain, where stories are taken up, broken off, and taken up again, where voices rise and crumble and are resurrected, we can discern the essential lineaments of our modern condition, and encounter an awesome vision, tragic yet always compelling and always mysteriously invigorating, of consciousness trapped and struggling inside the boundaries of nature.
