About the author

Pier Vittorio Tondelli was born in Correggio in 1955. After graduating from high school he enrolled at the University of Bologna, where he attended courses with Umberto Eco and Gianni Celati.
In 1980 he made his debut with the collection of generational-themed stories Other Libertines, which achieved good success with critics and the public. The explicit content also earned him the attention of the judicial authorities, followed by a trial at the end of which the author and publisher were exonerated.
After his military experience he published other novels, including Pao Pao and Rimini. He curated the three anthological volumes of the Under 25 series to give voice to a new generation of writers. His latest novel was Separate Rooms, a mournful story of homosexual love. He then published the collection of essays A Postmodern Weekend. He died of AIDS in 1991, at the age of 36.
The collection of short stories The Abandonment and the theatrical drama Dinner Party were published posthumously.
