Meaning comes from above

Ickapoo seeks meaning, but such meaning could be spiritual, not material.

Central to Beckett’s work is his notion of the absurd and his exploration of the incongruity between human constructions of meaning and the Void that lies at the core of existence, that nihilistically deflates and defies all attempts to impose order upon it, through systems of thought such as reason, language, religion and other forms of doctrine. The figure of the schizophrenic also recurs in Beckett’s work, one who experiences nervous illness and mental breakdown as a consequence of this failure to decipher a coherent meaning to his existence, in spite of all elaborate semantic, logical and hermeneutic attempts to do so.
