Antonio Cecere was born in Napoli, Italy, in 1978 and has lived in London since 1997.

Cecere established himself as a writer at a young age, publishing in 1998 the critically acclaimed Italian novel "Farfalle", now part of the Italian National Library.

Carmine di Biase compared Antonio Cecere's writing to Italo Calvino and Umberto Eco.

"Few writers this century manage to show a similar depth of psychological self-analysis: Calvino in Palomar, Saint'Exupery in Le Petit Prince and Gibran in The Prophet." Chiara Rubino, 2004

"[...]I believe a new kind of writer is born, for his geniality of style and deep understanding of human self-discovery." Carmine Di Biase, 2004
