| الوصف: | "Bold and provocative, Beckett's works and even his image are a potent force in modern society. Shoes, marketing, baby names--all fall under his spell. Exploring Beckett's "art of failure" as a highly successful marketing scheme, this collection of essays finds him incorporated into virtually all aspects of popular culture in a manner that seemingly defies cataloging"-- |
