Whilein 1981 Alain Robbe-Grillet announcedthathe no longer wanted to writenovels, hepublished one, La Reprise, on the eve of his 80 years (2001). The title of thisnovelisinspired by Kierkegaard, whosenovelistfollows the distinction betweenreminiscence or recollection and reprise: the first one is considered as a “backward remembering”, but “resumption is a forward remembering”. Throughvarious narrative means, such as diversification and variability of the discursive and narrative levels, Robbe-Grillet tries, with La Reprise, to destroy and renew the "new novel", in order to propose a novelthatis a “forward remembering”, and not a resumption oriented to his ancient works. This article examines the process of writing by which the novelist, through an incessant resumption of the work of writing, wants to create a new workwith new roots and to prevent the book fromresting in a world alreadyknown.
