Gasperi and NC Kaser
In his youth, Gasperi was one of the closest people to the writer Norbert Conrad Kaser , who died prematurely in 1978 and with whom he had been active in the Italian Communist Party, among others . By collecting texts and correspondence from Kaser, Gasperi made a significant contribution to the posthumous publication of his works, most of which had remained unpublished during the author's lifetime.
