Samuel Beckett was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1969; his literary output of plays, novels, stories and poetry has earned him an uncontested place as one of the greatest writers of our time. Endgame, originally written in French and translated into English by Beckett himself, is considered by many critics to be his greatest single work.

Heavy stuff...I didn't love it as much as Waiting for Godot, but enjoyed it. Worth a read if you're a fan of Beckett's and/or absurd theater/existentialism.
