Elio Vittorini, un joven escritor italiano, buscó trascender el nacionalismo literario de su país conectando con la literatura europea, americana y rusa. Convencido del papel catalizador del escritor, Vittorini asume la responsabilidad que ello implica. Su temperamento lírico difumina los límites entre poesía y narrativa. 'El clavel rojo', una obra de larga y laboriosa redacción, se desarrolla en dos planos: uno íntimo y otro político y documental.

Elio Vittorini 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.
