From Bruce Morrissette's essay:
Robbe-Grillet was called a competitor with the "cadastre" or record book of county property lines, because of his minute, geometric descriptions, some of which (like the notorious "counting the banana trees" passage in Jealousy) were read over the radio, for laughs.
"cadastre," French for "land register"
