Dario Voltolini is an Italian writer. His style has often been described as "minimalism", though the author describes his writing as spontaneous and far from the patiently refined work of minimalism master Raymond Carver.

He has written many novels and short stories and teaches at the writing school Scuola Holden in Turin. He collaborates to the section Tuttolibri in the Italian newspaper La Stampa.
