Hardcover. Condition: Fine. One of 250 copies, signed by Beckett. Oversized folio. 36 pp. Illustrated with seven full-page intaglio prints by Charles Klabunde, all of which are numbered, titled, and signed by the artist. Klabunde used a combination of etching, engraving, and rouletting on large copper plates to produce these images of existential realism. According to the artist, his works of the grotesque are intended to "giv[e] shape and form to the demonic and angelic images that lie within the shadowland of our living essence; the unknown anxiety of despair and meaninglessness in the face of our non-being."

The text was translated into English by Beckett himself from his original 1970 version of the book, Le DÃ peupleur.
