Äekánà na Godota Waiting for Godot. Translated from the original French by JiÅà KoláÅ
Prague: DILIA 1964. Octavo 19.6 à 14 cm. Original decorative wrappers; 223 1 pp. A very good copy. The first appearance of any work by Samuel Beckett in Czech was this translation of the absurdist and existentialist play distributed for private use by literary and theatre professionals by DILIA the Czechoslovak literary and theatre agency. Expressly marked "not for sale" "Neprodejný text". This is the first printing second and third runs with variant colored wrappers were published due to large demand but in relatively low numbers given the caveat of the book being a purely internal non-commercial publication. The first regularly distributed edition of Beckett's work had to await the end of the "Normalization" period a period of strict political control which followed the short intermezzo of the liberal Prague Spring of the 1960s and could only be published in 1986. Nevertheless Beckett was quite influential in Communist Czechoslovakia impacting playwrights such as Vaclav Havel. The translator JiÅà KoláŠwas one of the most important post-war artists a pioneer of the collage medium and a key advocate of concrete poetry.
