Gloria Barberi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gloria Barberi (b. 1955) is an Italian science fiction and fantasy writer based in Liguria; she started publishing in the early 1980s in various fanzines and magazines.

Strong on lyrical and dream-like atmospheres, her approach to fantasy shows a penchant for horror or weird tones; some of her stories are reminiscent of the works of Clark Ashton Smith in style.

She has won a number of literary prizes, and published short fiction in Millemondi Urania from Mondadori and in various newspapers, magazines, and anthologies. "La notte di san Valentino" was translated in France as part of the anthology Cosmic Erotica, later republished by Fanucci in Italy.

In 1990 The Dark Side devoted the whole of issue number 34 to her novel I Custodi.

In the last few years she’s been involved in drama, as both a playwright and an actress.
