Italo Calvino was discreet about his life and the lives of others, and skeptical about the uses of biography. He understood that much of the world we inhabit is made up of signs, and that signs may speak more eloquently than facts. This book presents a selection of letters which seek to reflect history and Calvino's place in it.
