- Giovanni Comisso
Giovanni Comisso (
October 3 ,1895 – 1969) was an Italian writer.Born in
Treviso , he was an important figure of the Italian literature of the first half of the 20th century. He wrote novels, stories, "reportages" (for the "Corriere della Sera " and "Gazzetta del Popolo").During his years after the return to Treviso, Giovanni Comisso took two lovers, Bruno Pagan and Guido Bottegal, both sixteen. Pagan moved away after a three year relationship, but Guido, was shot by partisans, being mistaken for a fascist spy. Comisso is thought to have never gotten over his loss, and took no more lovers.
