«Altri Libertini» is the collection of six stories by Pier Vittorio Tondelli, published by Feltrinelli in paperback (200 pages, in Italian).
Six stories portraying groups of young people in 1970s Italy: the student scene in Bologna, trips to Amsterdam and London, utopias of freedom, drugs and the search for identity. Published in 1980, it was seized for obscenity and later acquitted; it is a generational portrait told from a choral 'we'.
First work by Pier Vittorio Tondelli (1955-1991). The twentieth edition is part of the Universale Economica collection.
For readers of contemporary Italian fiction, particularly generational and LGBTQ+ fiction.
Pier Vittorio Tondelli was an Italian writer who wrote a small but influential body of work. He was born in Correggio, a small town in the Emilia-Romagna region in Italy and died in nearby Reggio Emilia because of AIDS. Tondelli enjoyed modest success as a writer but often encountered trouble with censors for his use of homosexual themes in his works. Tondelli was buried in a small cemetery in the hamlet of Canolo, just outside Correggio.
