Alberto Moravia is something of a forgotten figure now. Yet when he died, in 1990, he was often considered to have been one of Italy’s leading novelists of the twentieth century. In a review of the posthumously published draft of a novel Moravia had been working on since 1950, Michael P. McDonald suggests that the authors’s reluctance to complete and publish his novel at the time was provoked by the fierce reception given to his study of political disaffection Il conformista when it was published in 1951.
