Today’s ‘In Our Time’ programme on Radio 4 was about Samuel Beckett (without whom nothing is possible and with whom Nothing is Possible). Seeing as 45 minutes on Beckett is always 45 minutes well spent, it’s worth a listen. Tune in to the BBC Radio 4 website and you’ll find it there. And this is my portrait of the great man himself, which is available in the Standard Designs shop. Just tap the picture to go there. #beckett #samuelbeckett #theatre #theater #play #modernism #modernist #latemodernism #language #jamesjoyce #irish #writer #novelist #bbc #bbcradio4 #radio4 #melvynbragg #inourtime #portrait #drawing #print #gift
