چکیده

Samuel Beckett’s first published novel, Murphy (1938), is the story of ‘big blooming buzzing confusion’ in the life of an unstable man who longs for nothing more than rocking on a chair and daydreaming. Murphy is a bizarre work that questions lots of metaphysical issues and standards, and contributes to a new framework of study under the influence of post structuralism. In Murphy, Beckett like many of his works applies the practice of decentering through an obscure language with lots of insoluble gaps. Its language is spattered with words that go dead as soon as they sound and they are disclosing the fundamental sense of unsureness and the unsuccessful endeavor of self-centeredness. The logic of novel is based on suggesting a position for the title character and eccentrically on the other side immediately overturning it. Murphy is unable to attain a center and experience the process of subjctification over the course of novel because he has already been locked into his liminal location as a prisoner of the extremes: inside/outside, self/other, body/mind, present/absent, sane/insane and etc.
