Molloy by Samuel Beckett
Two searching voices lose certainty about their bodies, purposes, and the stories they are trying to tell. Molloy recounts a difficult journey toward his mother, while another narrator, Moran, describes an assignment to find him. Their accounts gradually unsettle ordinary distinctions between searcher and subject. Beckett uses physical difficulty, repetition, and dark comedy to investigate identity through voices whose attempts at explanation make their worlds less secure.
