{"product_id":"book-bgle","title":"Waiting for Godot","description":"\u003cp\u003eSamuel Beckett (1906–1989), one of the greatest avant-garde Irish dramatists and writers of the second half of the twentieth century, won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1969. His centenary was celebrated throughout 2006 with performances of his major plays, but the most popular of them all was, without doubt, the play with which he first made his name: \u003ci\u003eWaiting for Godot\u003c\/i\u003e. It opened the gates to the theater of the absurd as four men appear on stage, apparently with purpose but (perhaps) waiting for someone called Godot. Stark, funny, and bemusing, \u003ci\u003eWaiting for Godot\u003c\/i\u003e is still deeply affecting half a century since its first production.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this new audiobook recording, John Tydeman takes a fresh look at one of the milestones in Western drama. It also follows the highly acclaimed recordings of Beckett’s trilogy—\u003ci\u003eMolloy\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMalone Dies\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Unnamable\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Naxos","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49388437864752,"sku":"BDbgle","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/258348-bgle-Square.jpg?v=1735220022","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-bgle","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
