Dario Ferrari

Dario Ferrari was born in 1982 in Viareggio, which is also the setting for his books, and studied philosophy at the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Pisa, where he later obtained his doctorate. He works as a professor at a high school in Rome and occasionally translates philosophical, technical, and biographical texts from English. He made his debut as a writer in 2020 with the original detective novel La quarta versione di Giuda (The Fourth Version of Judas), which received generally favourable reviews, but his real success came with the novel La ricreazione è finita (2023, The Break is Over), which won several prestigious literary awards: the Premio Flaiano, the Premio Satira, and the Premio Mastercard Letteratura, and was voted Book of the Year in a poll conducted by Radio Fahrenheit 3.
