MINIMALISM IN THE EXTREME

 I wouldn't have picked Richard of RBB as being a Beckett aficionado.

"I realised that Joyce had gone as far as one could in the direction of knowing more, [being] in control of one's material. He was always adding to it; you only have to look at his proofs to see that. I realised that my own way was in impoverishment, in lack of knowledge and in taking away, in subtracting rather than in adding."

         Samuel Beckett

Beckett's best known play - Waiting for Godot - is a play in which nothing happens.

Richard's post are becoming like that with his most recent one taking the Beckett style to extremes. See:

Oh well - "À chacun ses goûts" as Beckett might have written seeing that he wrote all his works in French.

Interestingly enough another of Samuel Beckett's plays was titled Krapp's Last Tape.

Coincidence?

I've mentioned Samuel Beckett in a post before: HERE
