More than a play May 9, 2010 Ms. S. C. Birks (UK) I was encouraged to buy this book by a friend who was studying it at University and was told it would be one of the hardest reads of my life, because nothing ever happens. Well, nothing and everything happens all at once but it was not a hard read. I absolutely fell in love with this book. Nothing does happen, he was right but at the same time the whole thing feels so profound and the context is so ambigious it really makes you think. For anyone that likes reading between the lines and likes to be made to think far off the page, this is the book for you.
Reasonable Value May 7, 2009 Nom de Plume (UK) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
As I believe it's the only authorised edition available it is reasonable value. Definately a text you need reason to read. As part of academic study it pays back all the effort you put in to it, but for it's own ends it could be a little too self-reflexive and high minded - not 'light' but does have humour, and not really 'bedtime' reading.

Wait November 27, 2008 Cameron Forbes (Dunfermline, Scotland) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I loved Waiting for Godot. A classic of Dialogue Theatre. People need to realise that even though it seems as if nothing is happening, it really is. They are waiting for something, and everyone knows what happens when you wait for so long, when it comes it will be a disapointment. Whether they are Waiting for God. In the days after WW11 when people started to really question whether there was a God and if there was, why didnt he stop the war? A brilliant example of the Absurdist theatre that was starting to rise or the Anti Theatre or the Search for ones Self, the search for purpose. A Fantastic play
