{"product_id":"9780571249855","title":"Collected Poems of Samuel Beckett by Samuel Beckett","description":"It was as a poet that Samuel Beckett launched himself in the little  reviews of 1930s Paris, and as a poet that he ended his career.   The Collected Poems  is the most complete edition of Beckett's poetry and verse translations  ever to be published, as well as the first critical edition. It  establishes a significant new canon, and the commentary draws on a wide  range of published sources, manuscripts and Beckett's extensive  correspondence. The notes place each poem in context, detailing  the history and circumstances of its composition; they indicate  significant variants and help explain obscure turns of phrase and  allusions (frequently sourced to Beckett's notebooks); they also  identify resonances between poems and across Beckett's work as a whole.  The commentary is written in a lively and engaging style and is intended  equally for the general reader, the student of modernism and the  Beckett specialist.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43201789591730,"sku":"9780571249855","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/products\/9780571249855.jpg?v=1690568901","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780571249855","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
