Title: THE TRILOGY THAT DESTROYS ITSELF
Review: If one has read the early poems, the stories in More Pricks Than Kicks, plus Murphy, Watt and the three stories that precede the trilogy, one feels flooded with sameness in Molloy and Malone Dies, surfeited with hate, doubt, distrust and incomprehension. The sameness of Beckett's themes alters only with the withering of Beckett's talents. Malone, like Sam in Watt as well as the narrator in "Stories" as well as Moran and Molloy, creates plots only to destroy them. In this respect, the narrator-artists are identical to Beckett himself. For more depth, see The Insanity of Samuel Beckett's Art on Amazon.com.
