Breaking with a powerful tradition among scholars that insists that Beckett's Irishness is no more than an accident of birth, Harrington provides compelling evidence to the ways in which many of Beckett's best-known texts are deeply involved in Irish issues and situations. Providing new readings of such works as More Pricks Than Kicks, Murphy, Watt, Mercier and Camier, Waiting for Godot, and Endgame, Harrington provides an understanding of Beckett's work in its representation of Ireland, of Irish history, and of Irish literary traditions.
