Waiting for Godot

Waiting for Godot: A Tragicomedy in Two Arts  Samuel Beckett
19821
Weight: 8.8 oz
Method of Disposal: Donating


Growing up, I would sometimes hear my mom chuckle and say, "It is like we are waiting for Godot."  Wanting to understand what that meant drew me to this book for the first time, and I have come back to it several times since.  Often, when I myself feel like I am waiting for Godot, and I am getting restless and frustrated.  This is a wonderful, repetitive play open to many more interpretations than the author likely could have imagined when he wrote it.  I would love love love to see it performed in person one day.
