She was born in Udine and lived in Rome and Venezia.

Her first novel I cristalli di Vienna was published in 1978 and received the Prato Prize; it was translated in English as Bloodstains. This was followed by Caffè Specchi (The Café of Mirrors) in 1983, which received the Viareggio Prize. Her 1987 novel Angelo a Berlino (Angel in Berlin) was a finalist for the Premio Campiello.[3]
In 1980, she published La voce che è in lei (The voice within her), an anthology of writing by little-known or forgotten Italian women authors. She also wrote an introduction for Italian translations of Samuel Beckett.[4]
