Summary/Abstract: One of the major representatives of Minuit literature, strongly intertextual in its narrative modes, Éric Chevillard exploits this literary phenomenon in an unusual way, which is not surprising in the case of the writer known for his peculiar novels. Instead of referring to other texts to form a network of literary influences and affiliations, he endeavours to create a romantic plot around them. This article analyzes L’OEuvre posthume de Thomas Pilaster to show how Chevillard turns intertextuality into an original narrative device to replace the conventional form of storytelling.
