SAMUEL BECKETT was born on April 13, 1906, in Foxrock, near Dublin, Ireland. In the late 1920s he went to Paris, where he began writing both prose and poetry. Until 1945 he wrote in English but thereafter began to write directly in French, and much of his major work was written in his adopted tongue. His translations of his own work into English are in themselves works of art. He was awarded the n.o.bel Prize for Literature in 1969, and his literary output, including plays, novels, stories, and poems, has earned him the reputation of being one of the most important writers of our time. He died in 1989.
About the Type.
