Éric Chevillard, (born 1964 in La Roche-sur-Yon) is a French novelist. He has won awards for several novels including La nébuleuse du crabe in 1993 which won the Fénéon Prize for Literature.
His work often plays with the codes of narration sometimes to the degree that it is even difficult to understand which story is related in his books, and has consequently been classified as Postmodern literature. He has been noted for his associations with Les Éditions de Minuit, a publishing-house largely associated with the leading experimental writers composing in French today.
