This was followed by more plays, including the equally experimental Endgame. But it was for his experimental plays that he would become best known, especially Waiting for Godot, which premiered in Paris (in its original French) in 1953.
Meanwhile, he continued to write, including a trilogy of well-known novels ( Molloy, Malone Dies, and The Unnamable). He moved to Paris in 1937, stayed there when World War II began in 1939, and joined French Resistance forces when the Nazis occupied the country. He soon quit the job, though, in 1931, and traveled around Europe, continuing to write. He moved back to Ireland in 1930, when he took up a job as a lecturer at Trinity College. After graduating, he taught in Paris, where he met fellow modernist Irish writer James Joyce and worked on both critical and creative writings.
Samuel Beckett grew up in Dublin and attended Trinity College, Dublin, where he studied French, English, and Italian.
