Roberto Saviano

Né à Naples en 1979, Roberto Saviano étudie la philosophie avant de devenir journaliste. En 2006, il publie son premier livre, Gomorra (traduit en 2007 par Gallimard), succès phénoménal qui provoque l'ire de la mafia napolitaine et le contraint à vivre sous protection policière permanente. Figure de la lutte contre le crime organisé, il a publié à ce jour huit livres et il est toujours très impliqué dans les débats socio-politiques de son pays.
