The Communist

Rich and engrossing. . . . [Morselli s] tale of a man whose certainties are destroyed will resonate with readers of any political persuasion. Publishers Weekly

Morselli was a man of wide culture and vast reading, a writer of inexhaustible intellectual curiosity, possessed  of a rare talent to evoke social or historical settings. Charles Fantazzi

"Morselli s novels...are serious social studies.... The uncanny, matter-of-fact depictions...give an eerie feeling of something utterly impossible becoming all-too-plausible.... Why works of such calibre went unpublished remains a mystery...his works simply remain there to be appreciated." Nicola Rossi, complete review Quarterly

"[Morselli s] best-laid schemes of mice and monarchs are presided over by a cool and witty intellect." Christopher Wordsworth, The Guardian

"Morselli possessed the pure visionary s exactness and constructive ability; each time he chose a subject, he punctiliously documented himself thereabout...an isolated experimenter.... He could prophetically interpret history as in Il Comunista or reverse it, with a good deal of fantastic inventiveness." Alfredo Giuliani, Literary Review

"Morselli [was] a master of irony and a deft juggler of tenses." Annapaola Cancogni, The New York Times
