| biography:
| Writer, born in Milan, Lombardy, N Italy. His first work, Misteri gaudiosi (1946), was an example of highly polished ‘art prose’, but his later work shows a mixture of religion and surreal irony, as in In Australia con mio nonno (1947), Il velocifero (1963), Orfeo in Paradiso (1967), Il mandragolo (1979), Brianza e altri amori (1982), and Il cuore dell'inverno (1992). |
