The two tramps keep on waiting for Godot who never comes however, messenger comes from him giving the message that he would come tomorrow. Probably, they mean nothing but to show the burden of existence: “To every man his little cross. They even talk about suicide but action is not meant for them. The two tramps entertain themselves with conversation, dull, blank, boring as well as sensational words but they do nothing. But tomorrow I won’t remember having met anyone today. I don’t remember having met anyone yesterday. Pozzo does not remember to have met the two tramps before: The characters seem to have either no memory or a very weak sense of it. For each one who begins to weep, somewhere else another stops. The tears of the world are a constant quantity. The fight for bones may also be considered the gloomy failure of human civilization. 2 Waiting for Godot is Beckett's translation of his own original French-language play, En attendant. This visit also exposes the financial weakness of the two tramps that are willing to eat even the bones thrown by rich Pozzo. Waiting for Godot ( / do / GOD-oh) 1 is a play by Samuel Beckett in which two characters, Vladimir (Didi) and Estragon (Gogo), engage in a variety of discussions and encounters while awaiting the titular Godot, who never arrives. His labours mean nothing to Pozzo, a symbol of inhuman behaviour attributed to modern man. Every act of Lucky is considered as meant for pleasing Pozzo. Pozzo, a rich man, treats his servant Lucky no less than an animal. Lucky and Pozzo happen to cross the same road where the two tramps are sitting on a mound. They seek repentance and want to change their condition but they feel they are unable to do so: The two tramps find themselves lost and their memory is very weak. Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes, it’s awful! The playwright literally creates such a scope of nothingness in the life of the characters that: Both of them fight, argue, abuse each other but stay together:ĭon’t touch me! Don’t question me! Don’t speak to me! Stay with me! And Vladimir keeps on discussing the chances of survival for human beings are very small. Estragon remains busy in either taking off his shoe or putting back it on because it hurts him. Time is evening and the two of them express joy for having met again while none of them shows anything more than mere pretence in words. The play begins with the appearance of two tramps on a road with a single tree. Nothing is certain or clearer in the play.The scope of time seems quite disturbed because a tomorrow could mean a day, a year, a season or even a whole of one’s life in this play. They are subject to an apparently endless wait expecting some sort of help from Godot but he does not come except for a vague promise that Godot will come tomorrow. There are two tramps Estragon and Vladimir. Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot is a tragic play with two acts depicting the unbearable miserable condition of modern man.
