Gadda was a language innovator, who played with the stiff standard pre-war Italian language, and added elements of dialects, technical jargon and wordplay to his work. He is best known for the crime novel Quer pasticciaccio brutto de via Merulana / That Awful Mess On The Via Merulana
(1946); in which he experiments heavily with language.
