Book Synopsis Samuel Beckett, W.B. Yeats, and Jack Yeats by : Gordon S. Armstrong
Book excerpt: In contrast to the many critics who consider W. B. Yeats a dominant influence on Beckett's drama, this study demonstrates that the two are almost diametrically opposed in their theater and that the real bridge to Beckett's art is to be found in the narrative and pictorial creations of the younger Yeats brother, Jack.
