As the crime is described and relived, doubt sets in as to whether it has ever taken place. Written in 1949 but only published in 1979, Robbe-Grillet's first novel is a disquieting and satirical avant-garde political thriller which bridges the gap between traditional novel and the nouveau roman genre he would later espouse and make famous. 650 0 $a Assassination $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Imaginary places $v Fiction. 650 0 $a French fiction $y 20th century $v Translations into English. 700 1 $a Calder, John, $d 1927- $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20161202022254.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FE8EE52C6B5311E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
