Product Description

This is the first biography authorized by Beckett and his estate. Shortly before his death, Beckett chose Knowlson to be his biographer because, in his words, he is "the one who knows my work the best". This biography draws on Knowlson's 20-year friendship with Beckett, more than 100 interviews, and research in dozens of archives--many previously untapped by scholars. Terry Eagleton and Paul Muldoon chose this title as a "Times Literary Supplement" Book of the Year for 1996.

Paperback, Damned to Fame: The Life of Samuel Beckett

<div>Damned to Fame is the brilliant and insightful portrait of Nobel Prize-winning author Samuel Beckett, mysterious and reclusive master of twentieth- century literature. Professor James Knowlson, Beckett s chosen biographer and a leading authority on Beckett, vividly re-creates Beckett s life from his birth in a rural suburb of Dublin in 1906 to his death in Paris in 1989, revealing the real man behind the literary giant. Scrupulously researched and filled with previously unknown information garnered from interviews with the author and his friends, family, and contemporaries, Knowlson s unparalleled work is the definitive Beckett biography of our time.</div>
