La belle captive (1983) - Alain Robbe-Grillet
#nouveauroman #AlainRobbeGrillet #frenchcinema

Meticulously staged and filmed with slow tracking shots and intentionally wooden performances, India Song strongly resembles fellow nouveau roman scribe Alain Robbe-Grillet scripted Last Year at Marienbad. Highlighting decadence of the Western colonizers with their out of place sense of entitlement and how it rots the human hearts, the film is a cinematic achievement that encompasses all of Duras preoccupation- colonialism, war, love, memories, from a woman's point of view. #nouveauroman #duras

#introduction
Hello! I am a PhD candidate in #translationstudies at #UGent, Belgium. My thesis focuses on the #censorship
, translation and reception of the #NouveauRoman in Franco’s Spain. I am interested in discussions around Translation under Fascism, the novel as a genre and #Francoism.

I have a past in French Studies, Comparative Literature and Spanish teaching.

Calvino wanted lightness to be one of the qualities of the New Millenium. Sometimes I read him with nostalgia.
