Alain Robbe-Grillet Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Alain Robbe-Grillet (French: [a.l?? ??b ??i.j?]; 18 August 1922 – 18 February 2008) was a French writer and filmmaker. He was, along with Nathalie Sarraute, Michel Butor and Claude Simon, one of the figures most associated with the Nouveau Roman (new novel) trend. Alain Robbe-Grillet was elected a member of the Académie française on 25 March 2004, succeeding Maurice Rheims at seat No. 32. He was married to Catherine Robbe-Grillet (née Rstakian).
His "new novel" style disregarded traditional literary devices such as plot and chronological narrative; objects are more significant than human actions.
Wrote an original screenplay for Michelangelo Antonioni entitled "La fortresse" (The Fortress); the movie was never made.

He was inducted into France's Legion of Honor, as well as the prestigious French Academy, the official custodian of the French language. However, he refused to purchase the Academy's ceremonial robes for his induction ceremony. He also declined the tradition of giving a eulogy for his predecessor.
