Andrej Longo was born in Ischia in 1959. He is an author of theatrical, radio, and film works. He has won several literary awards, including the Bagutta and the Premio Chiara. Sellerio has published Solo la pioggia (2021), Chi ha ucciso Sarah? (2021, a reissue of his 2009 novel), Mille giorni che non vieni (2022), La forma dei sogni (2023), and the short story collections Dieci (2025) and Undici: Non dimenticare (2025). Schegge di Napoli is a reading that lies halfway between a literary performance and a theatrical show: it tells the story of Naples through excerpts from his books, and at the same time, tells the story of his books through the city of Naples.
