Trilogie Molloy, Malone umírá a Nepojmenovatelný má v Beckettově prozaickém díle stejně zásadní postavení jako Čekání na Godota či Konec hry v jeho díle určeném pro divadelní scénu. Radikální 'antirománová' forma, spojená s rozpadem vypravěčského vědomí a stále vyhrocenější anonymitou, se jedinečným způsobem pojí se skeptickým a černým humorem. Beckett zde naplňuje své autorské krédo, že úkolem umělce je selhávat lépe než kdokoli jiný, a vytváří jeden z mála modernistických textů, který lze bez rozpaků stavět vedle díla Franze Kafky. Individuální hrdina se zřetelnými obrysy mizí, ohniskem vyprávění se místo něj stává nejistota a kupící se vědomí nicoty lidské existence. Prózy původně psané francouzsky a poté autorem převedené do angličtiny mistrovsky přeložil Tomáš Hrách.
