A personal story caught up in the dark history of the mid-twentieth century begins with a lost child's cry. A dozen years of sheltered life in a Hungarian middle-class family - a vanished age of peace and luxury behind precariously concealed Jewish origins - is wrenched into persecution by the Nazi invasion of March 1944.

In this study the author links Beckett's vision of a diminished humanity with his art of formally and verbally diminished resources, and traces the fundamental simplicity and coherence of Beckett's work beneath its complex textures.
