Hi J
So what is Endgame exactly about? As I previously mentioned, it is about a relationship between master (Hamm) and his servant (Clov). Their relationship is pretty weird because Hamm treats Clov like a slave. Still Clov is not leaving him, even though he plans it.
Clov and Hamm kill their time together by conversation, the rare absurd conversation that doesn’t say much. The reader can be easily confused because they use dialogue that doesn’t make much sense. What are they talking about? Few understandable lines hinds that Clov complains and wants to leave but Hamm always persuade that he cannot. However Clov can go any time and leave because his master cannot stand and is blind. Hamm is not able hold back Clov physically, so what is the problem?
Will Clov leave his master? He can leave any time but is he psychically able to do so? I know the end (I just finished the book:-P) and I am not telling you HAHA :-D.

I am gonna spill the beans :-D
Ok, so I guess that you want to
know how the play ends. I already mentioned that Absurd plays involve audience
into the play by making them thinking about it. I also hind (write) how the
play ends. “Will Clov leave his master? He can leave any time but is he
psychically able to do so?” This is the ending of the play(really). It is up to the audience/person how the play ends.
It is opened end so if you want Clov to leave, than he leaves. If you want him
to stay, he will or if you want crazy end you can think of something really
abstract.
You could give us more detail here Milan. Even if something completely absurd and nonsensical is happening, or if nothing will happen at all, I want to know! =)
OdpovědětVymazatI am also feeling the lack of information -- you say that the play ends how you want it to end, but how does the author make this happen? Also, I am curious at this point -- why is it called "Endgame"?
