"Rich and engrossing. . . . [Morselli's] tale of a man whose certainties are destroyed will resonate with readers of any political persuasion." –
Publishers Weekly "Morselli was a man of wide culture and vast reading, a writer of inexhaustible intellectual curiosity, possessed of a rare talent to evoke social or historical settings." –Charles Fantazzi
"Morselli's novels...are serious social studies.... The uncanny, matter-of-fact depictions...give an eerie feeling of something utterly impossible becoming all-too-plausible.... Why works of such calibre went unpublished remains a mystery...his works simply remain there to be appreciated." –Nicola Rossi,
complete review Quarterly "[Morselli's] best-laid schemes of mice and monarchs are presided over by a cool and witty intellect." –Christopher Wordsworth,
The Guardian "Morselli possessed the pure visionary's exactness and constructive ability; each time he chose a subject, he punctiliously documented himself thereabout...an isolated experimenter.... He could prophetically interpret history as in
Il Comunista or reverse it, with a good deal of fantastic inventiveness." –Alfredo Giuliani,
Literary Review "Morselli [was] a master of irony and a deft juggler of tenses." –Annapaola Cancogni,
