First UK Edition. Octavo. A pleasing, unsophisticated copy of Beckett's masterpiece, complete with Publisher's Note tipped-in after title page, referring to passages censored by the Lord Chamberlain's Office. Typical toning to endpapers, else a near fine copy in mustard cloth boards with red lettering to spine. Some rubbing to extremities of unclipped photo-illustrated jacket, else near fine.

One of the most important works of modernist literature, Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot is a play in which two characters, Vladimir and Estragon, wait for the arrival of someone named Godot who never arrives, and while waiting they engage in a variety of discussions and encounter several other characters.
