Chronicle Supposing Books Malone Dies (The Trilogy #2)
Written and published in French in 1951, and in Samuel Beckett’s English translation in 1956, Malone Dies is the second of his immediate post-war novels, written during what Beckett later referred to as ‘the siege in the room’.‘Malone’, writes Malone, ‘is what I am called now.’ On his deathbed, whittling away the time with stories and revisions of stories, the octogenarian Malone's account of his condition is contradictory and intermittent, shifting with the vagaries of the passing days: without mellowness, without elegiacs; wittier, jauntier, and capable of darker rages than his precursor Molloy. Malone promises silence, but as a storyteller he delivers irresistibly more.

So boring! I wished he would just hurry up and finish dying.

The author exercises his genius in unfolding before our eyes the death of a cipher who constructs odd fictions while at the same time scraping together a few bits of detritus from his own life that somehow hint at the person he once was--while everything is uncertain.Beckett meticulously builds up expectations in order to smash them. He plays brilliantly even as his character declares an incapacity for play. And he goes to literary places no one else goes to. He inspires, moves, entertains, and
Beckett, at last, faced with the sentence, the semi-sentient, sentence-like non-sentence. Even dying, especially so, Beckett alone in the rotting body of Malone, the rolling, roiling, sacrosanct body Malloyed against the scat of Saposcat like a hat on a hill. Oh, were getting on, alright, Macmann. Lets gasp. Lets grasp for our stick better to poke-at with, our nub of lead better to write with, this letter of cease and decease.For there is a joy in here that is hard to describe. On the one hand I
It's another gem from Samuel Beckett, the universe of Beckett is rich, haunting, surreal and metaphorical which shudder you to the core of your existence. The misery of human nature is, as it is condemned, to feel absurd above life, the very existence of human being to the point where existence of a man is strip to nothingness; however the life we witness is rich indeed but 'death' is an absolute certainty (at least to the extent we have been able to understand our 'Universe' till yet), and the
