The purposeless and the time as main themes. Short but absurd. I loved reading it through. I am aware a lot of people found it too absurd to like this but when you think deeply about how the characters behave. It is exactly how us humans are walking on earth. Not remembering the important details of life but always waiting for something. Godot could be intercepted as the God or even as the good things that we all wait for. We always have something better we wait for. Humans would never be satisfied but they would never give up on that waiting as well. Samuel Beckett is an amazing playwright.
