what is the word»

[This was the very last work of Samuel Beckett, was written in bed in the nursing home where he spent the last period of his life in 1989, the year of his death, and was published in 1990. The soundly silence of his words was never so well achieved like in this text. We can feel the tempest of all his life coming from our mouths when we read it aloud.]
