Praise for this book

"Robbe-Grillet has undertaken a great literary exploration." --Roland Barthes
"The reader will find in this very small volume something better than specimens. He will find pages that are not only very powerful and very characteristic of Robbe-Grillet's manner but that also offer important insights into the author's inner world." --New York Times Book Review
