Summary A bundle of Samuel Beckett’s three extraordinary novels, recently reissued by Faber in paperback: The Unnamable, Malone Dies and Molloy. RRP value: £26.97. Available exclusively from faber.co.uk. About the books in this bundle: Molloy: Introduced by Colm Tóibín Molloy, a sordid, bedridden vagrant, recalls a long bicycle ride in search of his mother. He describes sucking on stones, falling in love, getting arrested, killing a dog. Moran, a private detective, sets out to look for Molloy. But as Moran’s physical and mental state deteriorate, his narrative starts to mirror Molloy’s in mysterious ways. Malone Dies: Introduced by Claire-Louise Bennett Malone, a decrepit old man, lies naked in his bed, scrawling bitter observations in an exercise book. He is fed on a bed-table, his chamber pot is emptied, he hooks items with his stick, he looks out of the window. He tells the story of a man, looked after by nurses, taken for an ill-fated picnic on an island in the sea. As his mind disintegrates, so does the novel . . . The Unnamable: Introduced by Eimear McBride The Unnamable is a voice. Is it curled up inside an urn, on the point of being born, or is it about to die? Haunted by visitors, it weeps. The Unnamable sifts disjointed memories, grapples with the problem of existence and ultimately perpetuates itself through an endless stream of fragmented words.
