As an inspiration to many later writers, he is also sometimes considered one of the first postmodernists. He is one of the key writers in the "Theatre of the Absurd". His work became increasingly minimalist in his later career.

Works

Leabharlann Baidu
Beckett's career as a writer can be roughly divided into three periods: his early works, up until the end of World War II in 1945; his middle period, stretching from 1945 until the early 1960s, during which period he wrote what are probably his best-known works; and his late period, from the early 1960s until Beckett's death in 1989, during which his works tended to become shorter and his style more minimalist.
