Texts for Nothing I III read by Patrick Magee
The first programme of four In which PATRICK MAGEE will read the whole of Beckett's 13 Texts for Nothing.
These prose poems are meditations on the nature of the self and the burden of being. The voice we hear has reached a state detached from a world which has become unreal. It Is from this vantage point that the speaker looks back at existence.
Producer MARTIN ESSLIN
(Texts for Nothing IV-VI can be heard next Thursday)
