THE COMPLETE DRAMATIC WORKS

First edition, first printing. Original black cloth lettered in silver to the spine, in the Pentagram designed dustwrapper with Sue Linney's portrait of Beckett on the front panel. A near fine copy, the binding square and firm, the lower spine tip a little pushed, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents are clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. The top edge is just a touch spotted. Minor binding fault resulting in the front endpaper being fixed to the pastedown. Complete with the lightly creased dustwrapper that has a few foxing spots to the underside. Not price-clipped (£12.50 net to the front flap). The hardback edition is notably scarce.

Published three years before the author's death, this volume collected for the first time all of Beckett's writings for stage, radio, television and cinema. Still available in paperback format, it remains the standard edition of these works.
