Luca Ferraro (Milan, 1989) is an Italian novelist and storyteller based in Barcelona.
Trained in Law, he left the legal profession to devote himself entirely to writing, convinced that fiction can reach truths deeper than any argument. His attention to moral conflict and human relationships continues to shape the emotional depth of his work.
Ferraro’s novels explore the complexity of love, memory, and loss within contemporary urban and natural landscapes. His characters inhabit cities that feel both intimate and immense—spaces where desire, tenderness, and silence coexist in a fragile and deeply human balance.
With a precise voice and a restrained lyrical quality, his writing focuses on contrasts: passion and restraint, presence and absence, connection and solitude. Influenced by European realism and contemporary cinema, he builds narratives in which every gesture matters and every silence carries meaning.
Do Not Fall in Love with Me, his most personal and daring novel, examines what remains when loving becomes an act of courage.
Where Fireflies Are Born deepens this vision through a story of first love, identity, and the light that endures even in loss.
