The recordings in this production provide an impressive documentation of
Beckett's "visual writing." Molloy, The Image, Company - three texts from
different phases in the life of the Irish author and Nobel literature laureate.
The playing directions for the instrumentalist are derived directly from the
so-called sucking stones sequence in Beckett's novel Molloy, where the author has
his protagonist invent three variations of the correct way to suck 16 pebbles -
distributed between two coat or trouser pockets.
