Rosetta Loy was an Italian writer.
Born in Rome as Rosetta Provera, she was the youngest of four children of a Piedmontese father and a mother from Rome. She wrote her first story at the age of nine, but her real literary vocation manifested itself towards the age of twenty-five. However, she had to wait until 1974 for her first publication, La Bicicletta.
She was married for thirty years to Beppe Loy, with whom she had four children.[
