If on a winter's night a traveler (Italian: Se una notte d'inverno un viaggiatore) is a 1979 novel by the Italian writer Italo Calvino. The postmodernist narrative, in the form of a frame story, is about the reader trying to read a book called If on a winter's night a traveler. Each chapter is divided into two sections. The first section of each chapter is in second person, and describes the process the reader goes through to attempt to read the next chapter of the book he or she is reading. The second half is the first part of a new book that the reader (\"you\") finds. The second half is always about something different from the previous ones. The book was published in an English translation by William Weaver in 1981.
The book begins with a chapter on the art and nature of reading, and is subsequently divided into twenty-two passages. The odd-numbered passages and the final passage are narrated in the second person. That is, they concern events purportedly happening to the novel's reader. (Some contain further discussions about whether the person narrated as \"you\" is the same as the \"you\" who is actually reading.) These chapters concern the reader's adventures in reading Italo Calvino's novel, If on a winter's night a traveler. Eventually the reader meets a woman named Ludmilla, who is also addressed in her own chapter, separately, and also in the second person.
In a 1985 interview with Gregory Lucente, Calvino stated If on a winter's night a traveler was \"clearly\" influenced by the writings of Vladimir Nabokov.[4] The book was also influenced by the author's membership in the literary group Oulipo.[5] The structure of the text is said to be an adaptation of the structural semiology of A.J. Greimas.[5]

Talk of a contract between reader and writer is not new, but this suggests a solicitude for the reader's comfort which rivals that apparent in the first chapter of Calvino's If on a winter's night a traveler (1979): \"You are about to begin reading Italo Calvino's new novel, If on a winter's night a traveler. Relax. Concentrate. Dispel every other thought.\" Again, the paratextual networking is complex. The alert reader of the paratext will have encountered, before he reads the above paragraph, another supplementary title-page whose origin rests clearly with the author rather than the publisher. This supplementary (and fictive) title-page gives the narrative's title, in Latin, as Lexicon Cosri; places within parentheses the words \"A Dictionary of Dictionaries of the Khazar Question\"; and, at the bottom, \"Reconstruction of the Original 1691 Daubmannus edition (destroyed in 1692), including its most recent revisions.\" 153554b96e
