Dario Voltolini

Dario Voltolini (Turin, 1959) is an Italian writer. His style has often been described as "minimalism", though the author describes his writing as spontaneous and far from the patiently refined work of minimalism master Raymond Carver.

Biography
After graduating in Turin, he was co-founder of the blog Nazione Indiana, a collective whose members include writers and intellectuals. He has written many novels and short stories and teaches at the writing school Scuola Holden in Turin. He collaborates to the section Tuttolibri in the Italian newspaper La Stampa.
