'''Elio Vittorini''' ({{IPA|it|ˈɛːljo vittoˈriːni|lang|It-Elio_Vittorini.ogg}}; 23 July 1908 – 12 February 1966) was an Italian writer and novelist. He was a contemporary of [[Cesare Pavese]] and an influential voice in the [[modernist]] school of novel writing. His best-known work, in English speaking countries, is the [[anti-fascist]] novel ''[[Conversations in Sicily]]'', for which he was jailed when it was published in 1941. The first U.S. edition of the novel, published in 1949, included an introduction from [[Ernest Hemingway]], whose style influenced Vittorini and that novel in particular. |
