Too true. I'm not a fan, but the 6th form did it at school so we all had to watch. I was only 11 and none of it made any sense to me then. Or now, come to think of it. I have the phrase "Waiting for Godot" so firmly entrenched in my memory that the words 'waiting for' prompt an automatic reaction! :)
I had it at the equivalent of the last year of highschool as well, and it's been my favorite piece of literature ever since. I actually read the original French version, as I live in a French speaking place. Did you know that, despite being Irish, Samuel Beckett was fluent in French and wrote most of his works in this language, before translating them himself back into his native English?
You're too kind. :)
