"Arturo Vivante (October 17, 1923 in Rome – April 1, 2008 in Wellfleet, MA) was an Italian American fiction writer. He was the son of Elena (née de Bosis) , a painter, and Leone Vivante, a philosopher. The family fled to England in 1938, anticipating the war and the fascist government's anti-Semitic policies (Leone was Jewish). The British sent Arturo to an internment camp in Canada while his family remained in England for the duration of the war. He graduated from McGill University in 1944 and received his medical degree at University of Rome in 1949. He practiced medicine in Rome until 1958, but thereafter moved to New York to pursue writing full-time. " (from Wikipedia). Very Good+ in Near Fine dust jacket .
