Carlo Gébler on Samuel Beckett
Every writer has something which only they can say and most spend their lives struggling to say it. Sometimes it is difficult to sing in your own voice; more often than not, no one wants to listen or they want a different melody. Beckett, like everyone else, came up against this, but he never capitulated. He stuck to his guns and, ultimately, people learned how to listen.
Carlo Gébler, in Heroes and Villains: An Anthology of Animosity and Admiration
