Samuel Barclay Beckett’s Waiting for Godot is a masterpiece in English
literature for encapsulating the turmoil of postmodern individuals. The work is
considered to be the last of modernist literature or the first of postmodernist literature.
The characters Vladimir and Estragon represent the quintessential subjective
dilemmas of postmodern society. Their dialogue presentations and actions in the play
highlights the features of human quandaries as a result of postmodern effects.
Moreover, the subplot of Pozzo and Lucky mark some other major issues of
postmodernism.
