Informationen zum Autor Charles Juliet was born in 1934 in Jujurieux, France and lives today in Lyon. He attended military school until age 20, when he entered the Ecole de Sante Militaire in Lyon. Three years later, he gave up his studies and began writing, working in solitude for fifteen years before his first book (a collection of fragments prefaced by Georges Haldas) was published. Klappentext When Samuel Beckett and the Dutch painter Bram Van Velde met in Paris in the 1930s, both were living in abject poverty, and neither could have anticipated that on the other side of World War II and the brutal occupation of France by the Nazis they would each go on to be luminaries in their respective mediums: Beckett winning the Nobel Prize and becoming a bulwark of contemporary Western literature, and Van Velde holding exhibitions all over the world. Thirty years later, a younger author at the start of his career is introduced into the company of these two great pessimists neither of whom make cooperative interview subjects, and each of whom represents, in his own way, a radical rejection of the common languages of his art.Itself a mixture of idolatry, deft characterization, and critical insight, Conversations with Samuel Beckett and Bram Van Velde is both an entertaining and insightful contribution to our understanding of the lives and thoughts of two masters. Zusammenfassung Itself a mixture of idolatry, deft characterization, and critical insight, "Conversations with Samuel Beckett and Bram Van Velde" is both an entertaining and insightful contribution to our understanding of the lives and thoughts of two masters.
