Una Chi (born Bruna Bianchi, Milan, 1942) is an Italian writer and translator. A strong erotic identity is manifest in her works and she is distinguished, among other characteristics, by her scholarly and coldly analytical prose and the cruelty of her stories.[1]
Born in Milan in 1942, Bruna Bianchi now teaches German literature at the University of Milan. She is also a translator of Goethe and Thomas Mann. In the early 1990s, she drew the attention of critics and the public with the publication of some erotic novels,[2] that she publishes under the pseudonym Una Chi (probably to preserve even more anonymity, because this name means One Who).
