Botteghe Oscure

Botteghe Oscure was a literary journal, published and edited in Rome by Marguerite Caetani (Princess di Bassiano) from 1948 until 1960.

It was named after Botteghe Oscure Street, where the editorial office was located. With poetry and prose in five languages (Italian, French and English, and alternating issues featuring German and Spanish-language segments), the review was published twice a year. It was distributed in the United States through Farrar, Straus & Young and the Gotham Book Mart.

Giorgio Bassani was an editor, and later Eugene Walter moved from Paris to Rome to edit the magazine for Caetani.
