Krapp’s Last Tape, Not I, That Time, & A Piece of Monologue - Samuel Beckett Category: Literature, Plays & Theater Language: EnglishKeywords: Literature Theatre Shared by:ssitimefill Krapp's Last Tape, Not I, That Time, & A Piece of Monologue - Samuel Beckett Written by Samuel Beckett Read by Jim Norton, Juliet Stevenson, John Moffatt, Peter Marinker Format: MP3 Bitrate: 64 Kbps Dramatization Listening Length: 1 hour and 27 minutes These four works show Samuel Beckett at his most penetrating. Both Krapp’s Last Tape (1958) and Not I (1972) are among the most striking pieces written for the theatre in the 20th century. An old man sits at a table, playing back old tapes made when he was younger, mixed glimpses of past feelings. In Not I, we have just a mouth expressing memories and torment in a torrent of words. That Time and A Piece of Monologue are less well-known, but express the Beckettian concerns of introspection, memory, and hopelessness in different ways, yet always with sympathy for the human condition. Though written for the stage, these four monodramas are even more penetrating in the enclosed, intimate medium of the audiobook.
