Not sure what possessed me to take on a Beckett novel. It's rewarding as it frustrating so far. Some poetic spells and lengths of prose that my level of sophistication has previously been unaccustomed.

I find it challenging to follow at times, but am surprised to be able to appreciate some of the eloquently worded, nihilistic points of view from time to time and even learned a new phrase "Schizoidal Spasmophile".
