title: Dream of Fair to Middling Women
text: Dream of Fair to Middling Women is Samuel Beckett’s first novel. Written in English "in a matter of weeks" in 1932 when Beckett was only 26 and living in Paris, the clearly autobiographical novel was rejected by publishers and shelved by the author. The novel was eventually published in 1992, three years after the author's death. The title parodies Tennyson's "A Dream of Fair Women" and the term "fair to middling," applied to agricultural products.
