Samuel Barclay Beckett (13 April 1906 – 22 December 1989) was an Irish avant-garde novelist, playwright, theatre director, and poet, who lived in Paris for most of his adult life and wrote in both English and French. His work offers a bleak, tragicomic outlook on human nature, often coupled with black comedy and “gallows humor”. Beckett is widely regarded as among the most influential writers of the 20th century. His work became increasingly minimalist in his later career.

WHICH WAY DO WE GO?

— Excerpt from THE OZ FACTORS by Lawrence R. Spencer:

“4/ WHICH WAY DO WE GO?

“Now which way do we go?”–Dorothy

“Pardon me, that way is a very nice way … it’s pleasant down that way too.”–the Scarecrow

“That’s funny … wasn’t he pointing the other way?”–Dorothy

“Of course, people do go both ways.”–the Scarecrow.

“Are you doing that on purpose or can’t you make up your mind?”–Dorothy in ‘The Wizard of Oz’

Everyone has a personal viewpoint about everything.

Every person has a singularly unique point of view.

There are as many universes as there are individual beings. To that degree, every subject is relative to the viewpoint of the person looking at it.

Example: How many different versions of an accident can there be?

1/ the same as the number of individuals who witnessed the accident

2/ the one version that the majority of individuals agree upon as being the “real” one.

This leads us to the understanding that there are at least two Universes:

1/ YOUR OWN UNIVERSE, which is subject to your own person viewpoint

2/ The PHYSICAL UNIVERSE, the universe each of us share in common to the degree that we agree upon “reality”.”
