La vida de Samuel Beckett atraviesa el siglo XX. Y su obra es una de las más radicales de la historia de la literatura. Javier Olivares y Jorge Carrión ponen en jaque lo que entendemos por biografía, fundiéndola con una retrospectiva artística. Samuel & Beckett alterna escenas de la vida de amuel con interpretaciones de la obra de Beckett, generando un ritmo conceptual y plástico que recorre una poética que escapa de las convenciones. Guiados por la voz del protagonista, vemos cómo se relaciona con su familia, conoce a Carl Gustav Jung, se emborracha y conversa con James Joyce, huye de los nazis o rueda una película con Buster Keaton, al tiempo que nos enfrentamos visualmente a la fuerza y el misterio de Esperando a Godot o Fin de partida . Un cómic documental fuera de lo común que conduce a una experiencia de lectura memorable. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION WHERE DOES LIFE END AND LITERATURE START? IS IT POSSIBLE TO COMMIT ONESELF ENTIRELY TO ART? WHAT IS LOVE? CAN YOU FAIL MORE SPECTACULARLY EVERY TIME? Samuel Beckett's life spanned most of the twentieth century, and his work is some of the most radical in the history of literature. To write about his life, Javier Olivares and Jorge Carrión expand the framework of the traditional biography to offer an artistic retrospective of his career in graphic format. Scenes from the author's life alternate with interpretations of his writings, creating an elastic and conceptual rhythm consistent with Beckett's unconventional prose. We observe him interacting with his family, meeting Carl Gustav Jung, engaging in drunken conversation with James Joyce, fleeing from the Nazis, and filming a movie with Buster Keaton, even as we admire the richness and mysteries of Waiting for Godot , Endgame and other works. A humorous and original graphic biography that makes for a memorable reading experience.
