Bartolo Cattafi was born in Sicily, in the town of Barcellona, province of Messina, on July 6, 1922. His father, a physician, died four months before he was born. Raised by his mother in Mollerino and Barcellona, he was from a well-to-do family and was educated in the liceo classico or school of literary studies with a stress on classical sources. He was drafted into the army during World War II, and while he was undergoing training to become an infantry officer at Forli, he suffered a nervous breakdown.

In 1947 he moved to Milan, where he worked in journalism and advertising. ...more
