Marino Moretti (18 July 1885 – 6 July 1979)[1] was an Italian poet and author.

Moretti's mother instilled in him a love of literature. After a failed attempt at an acting career, he began writing poetry; his first work being published in 1903. During his career, Moretti wrote twenty novels, eight books of verses, three book-length memoirs, and many short stories. Among his vast poetic production, which surely takes part of the artistic current of the Crepuscolari, the most renowned poem is A Cesena, published in 1910 in a book titled "Poesie scritte col lapis".[2][3] Among his better-known works are The Voice of God (1920) and Widow of Fioravanti (1971).[4] Moretti's home in Italy has been turned into a museum.[5]
