Description: Written in Roussillon during World War Two, while Samuel Beckett was hiding from the Gestapo, 'Watt' was first published in 1953. Beckett acknowledged that this comic novel unlike any other 'has its place in the series' - those masterpieces running from 'Murphy' to the 'Trilogy', 'Waiting for Godot' and beyond.
