After a failed attempt on his life by an unknown terrorist cell,
Professor Daniel Dupont decides to fake his own death. The
government authorities, believing that the attack is part of a
series of political assassinations, send Wallas, a recently
promoted special investigator, to the provincial town where the
crime took place. As he wanders the confusing streets of the town,
he finds himself increasingly lost in a web of conspiracies,
doppelgangers and memories. Cleverly deconstructing the detective
genre, The Erasers, Alain Robbe-Grillet's first published novel,
shifts between various characters and time frames, while
maintaining the suspense of a conventional thriller. The result is
an engrossing examination of consciousness and reality which is
also one the founding texts of the nouveau roman school.
