“Beckett, Lacan, and the Voice” by Llewellyn Brown explores the role of the voice in Beckett’s works, from its origins to its influence on the narrative structure and character development. The voice, which emanates from an ambiguous source and permeates every word spoken by the characters, is a constant presence throughout the texts. It can be soothing or intrusive, depending on the context. The study proposes that literary creation can transform the pain caused by the voice into a vital connection to language.
Beckett’s most evocative echo will be found on the borders of dialogue and narrative silence. As a psychoanalytic tool, this unique perspective offers insight into an under-the-radar site where the political vocabulary of the language of culture becomes deeply entangled with the structures of conduct and principle animating literary art.
