Guido Morselli

Guido Morselli (1912–1973) was an Italian writer and essayist. Born in Bologna, he grew up in Milan and earned a doctorate in law. None of his numerous literary works was accepted for publication by a publisher during his lifetime. Morselli took his own life in 1973, shortly after writing his novel “Dissipatio.” From 1974 onward, the publishing house Adelphi released his complete works posthumously.
