Jealousy: Alain Robbe-Grillet

Alain shows that a psychological state can be expressed without a single direct word of that emotion. Jealousy exists between the words in the extreme detail description of the gaze toward a woman, her dress, her combing, her talking, her everything. This experimental work clearly shows the mind-capturing is exactly in the detail description of material.

If you are serious about literature, read it. If not, forget it.
