Although Molloy has been interpreted from many perspectives, including Jungian, Freudian, Christian, and existential, Beckett has made it impossible for any
one theory entirely to explain his novel. He has deliberately created an ambiguous text, which, although it includes mythic and philosophical aspects,
constantly subverts the attempt to secure clarity and order. Beckett blends irony, despair, lyrical poetry, tragedy, and an anarchic comedy in a narrative
that is both realistic and dreamlike. The work can appear to be both about everything that matters and about nothing at all. How is the novel apparently
meaningful and meaningless at the same time? How is it about everything that matters and about nothing? What is the novel Molloy saying about human nature and
the human condition? Addressing these ideas, explain your interpretation.
