Anthony Minghella died OTD in 2008. James Knowlson wrote an obit focusing on his love of Beckett: 'There was a time for five years,' he said, 'when I read Beckett almost on a daily basis. The sense of language and poetry in his writing has been the single biggest influence on me'

A question for the Beckett art fans - does anyone have a picture of or know the whereabouts of Avigdor Arikha's "Le Plein et le Vide"? It's a 1959 oil on canvas and was included in the 1960 Israeli art exhibit at The Musée d'Art Moderne.
