Abstract

This article investigates how, in the post-war theatrical trilogy Waiting for Godot, End game and Happy Days, Samuel Beckett presents a wait that never ends, in two ways. First, regarding the content: it is a wait that has no external purpose of the works, as a total meaning that can be understood and serve our moral or cognitive instruction. Second, regarding the form: the waiting does not end, it is endless, as a final goal to be desired by the characters within the works that would confer them completeness, closure.
