The first part tells the story of Molloy, a wandering vagrant who sets out to find his mother but instead finds himself in a series of absurd situations. The second part of the book follows Moran, a detective hired to find Molloy. Like many of Beckett's works, «Molloy» is rich in absurdity, dark humor, and explores themes of loneliness, existence, and alienation.
