Book Review
Samuel Beckett's «Molloy» is often regarded as a key work in the literature of the absurd. Critics note its complex structure and unusual narrative, divided into two parts, each narrated by different characters. The first part tells the story of Molloy, a man living on the fringes of society, while the second follows detective Jacques Moran, who is searching for Molloy. Beckett masterfully uses language to convey a sense of alienation and the futility of existence. Critics also highlight the philosophical depth of the novel, its exploration of human identity and existential crisis. «Molloy» is not just a story, but a profound reflection on the nature of being and human destiny.
