"La Jalousie" by Alain Robbe-Grillet is a groundbreaking novel that exemplifies the principles of the Nouveau Roman, or New Novel, movement. Published in 1957, it is known for its experimental narrative style, unconventional structure, and exploration of subjective perception. The novel is narrated by an unnamed protagonist who observes the actions and conversations of a couple, referred to as "A" and "Franz," from a detached and voyeuristic perspective. The narrative is characterized by its repetitive descriptions of the couple's domestic surroundings, particularly the louvered shutters ("jalousie") that filter the protagonist's view and serve as a metaphor for his fragmented and distorted perception of reality.
