If I was asked to choose, the greatest writer of he 20th century - TopicsExpress



          

If I was asked to choose, the greatest writer of he 20th century in my estimation was Samuel Beckett, an Irish poet and dramatist. To understand why I choose Beckett, listen to this extract from one of his plays. No one exposes the deep drama of the inner life, the inner voices in your head more than Beckett. No one portrays the post modern, post industrial psyche better than Beckett. Beckett gave us a mirror, in the post industrial age in which we could see the alienation, the fragmentation and distintegration that is symptomatic of the modern age we live in. Enjoy.
