| Abstract
|
:
|
This is the first book-length comparison of the narrative techniques of Marcel Proust and Samuel Beckett. This study is an important contribution to critical literature, and offers fresh perspectives on the crucial importance of the Recherche and Beckett's trilogy: Molloy, Malone dies, and The Unnamable in the context of the twentieth-century novel.
