Marco Donati is an Italian author. He graduated from Florence University with a degree in Modern Languages and Translation. As part of his academic studies, he spent a term at SOAS, University of London, and fell in love with the place, the city, the people. It felt only natural to set at SOAS his debut Queer YA novel, 'Pages I Never Wrote', reliving some of his university days. He currently lives in Tuscany, where he tries to balance writing with his office job. When he’s not writing, he enjoys travelling, watching TV shows, taking photos obsessively, filming videos, and talking to his cats.
