This volume is an absurdist play in which two characters, Vladimir and Estragon, wait endlessly and in vain for the arrival of someone named Godot. They claim he's an acquaintance but in fact hardly know him, admitting that they would not recognize him when they do see him. To occupy the time they eat, sleep, converse, argue, sing, play games, exercise, swap hats, and contemplate suicide -- anything "to hold the terrible silence at bay". Throughout the play, the audience may encounter religious, philosophical, classical, psychoanalytical, biographical, and especially wartime references.… (lisätietoja)
I'm not quite sure what to think of Waiting for Godot. Did I enjoy it? More or less. Did I understand it? I think that's hard to say. The banality and futility are interesting to explore, but I can't help but feel like there's more here that I'm not accessing, at least not on a first read, and without having seen it performed. ( )
I wanted to like this, but I could not stand this. This play was so boring. I understand the message, but it was terrible. I almost fell asleep multiple times while reading it. ( )

Estragon, sitting on a low mound, is trying to take off his boot. He pulls at it with both hands, panting. He gives up, exhausted, rests, tries again. As before. Enter Vladimir ESTRAGON: (giving up again) Nothing to be done.
