ABSTRACT. In the present paper, I focus on Robbe-Grillet’s use of myth in Les Gommes, his contribution to French literature, and his account of narrative perspective in fiction. This study is grounded in the considerable body of scholarship examining the placement and perspective of human beings in Robbe-Grillet’s novels, Robbe-Grillet’s understanding of myth, and his insistence upon depicting the world from a human perspective. pp. 173–178
