read for 3 unit, also watched play
I found my first reading laborious but the more I read it (I had to for university, my intentions were not noble) the more I feel the humour has a Millennial bent that I quite like. It’s eminently quotable, with fascinating reasoning behind it.

My first ever experience with Beckett. How did he do it? How did he successfully make short back and forth dialogue not boring or tedious?
Waiting for Godot is such an interesting play. The plot is literally as the title says. Two men having a conversation while waiting for Godot. There are encounters with other characters, sure but,

ESTRAGON: What do we do now?
VLADIMIR: I don’t know.
ESTRAGON: Let’s go.
VLADIMIR: We can’t.
ESTRAGON: Why not?
VLADIMIR: We’re waiting for Godot.
ESTRAGON: (despairingly). Ah!

As you follow the interaction between the characters, you will be pulled along to different windows of life to reflect on existence, meaning, justice, power, etc just to get pulled back again to realize that we're in the middle of waiting. And that's just what we will see at the end, it's that maybe the Godot we are waiting for is the present moment we spend waiting for him. It doesn't end there, though, does it? We will look at the time that have gone by and question, do we have to wait? why are we waiting for it? what is it that we are actually waiting for?
I'm glad I read this while I was on a train, because honestly I was just trying to enjoy the journey, both the train, and the book.
