| | ArtandCulture Movement: Nouveau Roman (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | Narrative continuity, character development, omniscient perspective, unity of meaning -- in short, all the conventions associated with the traditional novel -- were thrown out the door by the writers of the Nouveau Roman. |
 | | These movements and gestures are repeated again and again, developing within each repetition minute displacements that leave the reader wondering what, if anything, has actually happened. |
 | | In a sense, the author of the Nouveau Roman enters into the text so fully, immerses him or herself so thoroughly, that writing becomes pure perception. |
