Texts for Nothing VII-X read by Patrick Magee
The third of four programmes 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 XI-XIII can be heard next Thursday)
