Sveva Casati Modignani is the pseudonym of Italian author Bice Cairati. For her first three books the pseudonym was shared by her late husband, Nullo Cantaroni. She has sold over 12 million books in Italy and is one of the country's most popular authors. Even though she has been published in 20+ countries, her work is not yet widely available in English, although at least one book, Mister Gregory, has been translated.
