Items related to The Erasers
First published in 1953, and winner of the Fénéon Prize, Robbe-Grillet’s astonishing debut novel is a sinister, singular mystery centered around a series of eight murders in eight days. After the ninth murder, the investigation turns over to a police agent―but it soon looks like the agent has been crooked from the start. With deft sleight-of-hand, Robbe-Grillet conjures an unsteady reality where fact mixes with fantasy, producing an intriguing and unnerving puzzle.

Review:
Praise for Alain Robbe-Grillet:
“Robbe-Grillet’s theories constitute the most ambitious aesthetic program since Surrealism.”―John Updike
“Robbe-Grillet is important because he has attacked the last bastion of the traditional art of writing: the organization of literary space”―Roland Barthes
“Alain Robbe-Grillet is the forerunner of a revolution more radical than Romanticism and Naturalism were in their time.”―Claude Mauriac
“Robbe-Grillet was a master at conveying human misunderstanding.”―Bernard-Henri Lévy
“I doubt that fiction as art can any longer be seriously discussed without Robbe-Grillet.”―New York Times
“Robbe-Grillet has done away with the omniscient narrator, has exploded the concept of plot, and has slyly focused his fiction on fiction itself, on the creation of literature.”―Artforum
“A haunting, mystifying evocation of a murder that will keep your attention riveted.”―Dallas Morning News
