No Matter sets excerpts from Samuel Beckett's 1983 prose poem Worstward Ho. It is one of the very last pieces Beckett ever wrote and remains one of his most enigmatic. The text concern's the poet quest to reach a position of sheer emotional nihilism, a Sysyphian struggle that is, logically, unattainable as a creative artist: 'nothing' cannot be attained with words - 'And worse may I be yet; the worst is not, so long as we can say 'This is the worst' (Shakespeare, King Lear IV. 1. 27-28).
