This book places sex and sexuality firmly at the heart of Beckett. From the earliest prose to the late plays, Paul Stewart uncovers a profound mistrust of procreation which nevertheless allows for a surprising variety of non-reproductive forms of sex which challenge established notions of sexual propriety and identity politics.

PAUL STEWART is an Associate Professor of Literature at the University of Nicosia, Cyprus. He is the author of Zone of Evaporation: Samuel Beckett's Disjunctions, as well as numerous articles on facets of Beckett's works for such journals as The Journal of Beckett Studies and Samuel Beckett Today / Aujourd'hui.
