This paper focuses on the various shades of Samuel Beckett’s epoch-making play Waiting for Godot from a postmodern perspective, without denying abundance of modernist elements embedded in it. Nullification of linear historical time, imprisonment within an ahistorical prospect, predisposition toward the perception of uncertainty or the notion of half chances, evincing numerous signs of binary opposition and most important of all, displaying absolute absurdism in all parts of the play have paved the path to give it a postmodern scrutiny.
