Tommaso Landolfi (9 August 1908 – 8 July 1979) was an Italian author, translator and literary critic.
His numerous grotesque tales and novels, sometimes on the border of speculative fiction, science fiction and realism, place him in a unique and unorthodox position among Italian writers.
He won a number of awards, including the prestigious Strega Prize.
