The release date for the English version of 'Waiting for Godot' by Samuel Beckett is Jan 2011. If you enjoy this novel, it is available for buy as a paperback from Barnes & Noble or Indigo, as an ebook on the Amazon Kindle store, or as an audiobook on Audible.

The narrative centers on two individuals who seem to be destitute who are only waiting for Godot, or something similar. Standing beside to a tree, engrossed in a play woven out of their own minds, are Vladimir and Estragon. The end product is a humorous combination of gibberish, poetry, and dreamscapes that has been compared to humanity's never-ending quest for purpose. The expressionistic minimalism introduced by Beckett's language encapsulated the existential crisis that gripped Europe after World War II. One of the most enchanted and exquisite allegories of our day is still found in his play.
