The Unnamable by Samuel Beckett. First Printing, 1958. Grove Press.

Description: First American Edition of Samuel Beckett’s The Unnamable. 1958. First printing, published by Grove Press.The Unnamable is in very good condition with a very good dust jacket, numerous but relatively shallow chips. Beautiful grey cloth boards with gold lettering. Clean pages and tightly bound.Beckett hit his stride with a trilogy of early 1950s masterpieces: “Molloy,” “Malone Dies,” and “The Unnamable.” In these works, he abandons the usual elements of contemporary fiction—such as exposition, plot, and even paragraphs—to focus on consciousness itself. His portrayal of the pain of existence and the gradual descent into nonexistence is unmatched in its poetic, verbose precision.
