The book focuses on a philosophical trajectory that not only had a profound impact on critical thought of the 20th and now 21th centuries, but on cosmopolitan, contemporary culture more broadly and on artistic experiment and expression in particular. It explores how the work of Samuel Beckett intersects with such preoccupations of time as a 'double headed monster', of memory and multiplicity, of being and becoming that continue in an involutionary turn through the work of Gilles Deleuze.
