His own rather bellicose theoretical pronouncements were partly to blame for this unattractive picture, belied by the immense popular success of the film \u003ci\u003eLast Year at Marienbad\u003c\/i\u003e (1961) (made by Alain Resnais from Robbe-Grillet's script) and the high critical esteem in which novels like \u003ci\u003eJealousy\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Voyeur\u003c\/i\u003e are held. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn his original study, first published in 1983, John Fletcher attempts to resolve this paradox by offering a new interpretation of Robbe-Grillet's work which stresses the subversive qualities of his imagination and the disturbing power of his vision of a world of labyrinths and bizarre sexual stereotypes, haunted by images of love and loss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Fletcher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367336596\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367336592\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 94\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.00w x 0.30d","brand":"John Fletcher","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990480650495,"sku":"9780367336592","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ce2e4d27-56af-4611-8f1b-ed11708f0724.jpg?v=1683304915","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/alain-robbe-grillet-john-fletcher-9780367336592","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
