Jealousy by Alain Robbe-Grillet
One of the most important and influential books of our time, a completely integrated masterpiece that has already become a classic.
Robbe-Grillet is a visual novelist for whom perception is intrinsically fascinating but fraught with uncertainty* The Daily Telegraph *
Robbe-Grillet's career was built on a sly and amusing paradox: of using fiction over and over again to undo the conventions of fiction. But how cleverly and engagingly he did it. * The Independent *
The finest novel about love since Proust. -- Vladimir Nabokov
The novel remains striking in its originality, and Richard Howard’s translation from 1959 has held up well. * TLS *
