Mercier and Camier - Samuel Beckett Radna Fabias the women's spirits begin toWritten over three months in 1946, Mercier and Camier was Beckett's first post war work, and his first novel in French. He came to regard it as a practice piece, and set it aside to write his trilogy. Mercier et Camier was finally published in 1970, and in Beckett's English translation four years later. The eponymous heroes tramp around a city, then out of it, then back again. They are aimless, but there is something elusive that they should be doing.
