Fabrizio Nazzini

This is Fabrizio Nazzini and his wife Francesca. We met on the bus 310 to Termini. When Fabrizio wrote his 1980 novel "Luce degli Fiori" (published in English by Knopf as "The Lightness of Flowers"), Moravia called him the new, young, strong voice of Italian literature and his cousin called him for a loan. Fabrizio did no write anything since and Francesca supports him by teaching high school Italian to kids who don't really care. Francesca was born in Volterra, lived in Rome for 37 years and hates it!
