The second novel in Beckett's trilogy (beginning with Molloy and ending with The Unnamable), Malone Dies was written in the late 1940s and first published in French in 1951. In it, an old man lies dying in a room. And while he waits, he constructs stories to pass the time. Saposcat, the Lambert family, Macmann, his nurse Moll and other figures weave in and out of his vision and imagination.
