Roger Vailland (1907-65), who won the Goncourt with La Loi in 1957, lived in Meillonnas with his wife Elisabeth from 1954 to 1965. The notice outside his house calls him one of the important figures of surrealism, the Resistance, communism and literature. The house they lived in is now called 'Rue Roger Vailland'. His grave is in the local cemetery and is almost anonymous, inundated by vegetation.
