«El innombrable» is the novel by Samuel Beckett published by Ediciones Orbis in 1983 in hardcover (191 pages, in Spanish).
Final installment of Samuel Beckett's narrative trilogy: a nameless, paralysed and formless narrator monologues from a consciousness cut off from the world and from his own body. A grotesque allegory of human impotence, the narrator's disjointed discourse portrays a vegetative existence condemned to hear the echo of its own voice.
Spanish edition of the original French novel «L'Innommable» (1953). Part of the Los Premios Nobel collection; Samuel Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1969.
For readers interested in twentieth-century Irish literature and in experimental and existentialist narrative.
Samuel Barclay Beckett was an Irish novelist, playwright, poet, and literary critic. Writing in both English and French, his literary and theatrical works feature bleak, impersonal, and tragicomic episodes of life, coupled with black comedy and literary nonsense. Beckett is widely regarded as one of the most influential and important writers of the 20th century, credited with transforming modern theatre. As a major figure of Irish literature, he is best known for his tragicomedy play Waiting for Godot (1953). For his foundational contribution to both literature and theatre, Beckett received the 1969 Nobel Prize in Literature, "for his writing, which—in new forms for the novel and drama—in the destitution of modern man acquires its elevation."
