'Coetzee's "Jesus Trilogy" series In addition to inheriting Beckett's poetic thought, the novel also reflects on it. The trilogy reveals the characteristics of Beckett's post-structuralism and post-modernism in terms of language concept, narrative strategy and characterization.

He reflected on Beckett's fall into the rut of purely formal games in his late creation.
