Sensibili alle foglie (English: Sensitive to Pages^[a]) is a publishing co-operative.

The group was founded by Renato Curcio in 1990, after meeting with Stefano Petrelli and Nicola Valentino [ it] in prison. All three men were imprisoned members of the Red Brigades militant group (Curcio was the leader of the group).^[2]^[3]

The publishing house dealt with themes of criminality, and the history of Italian terrorism. They had a specific focus on publishing content from migrant writers in prison on controversial topics. Sensibili alle foglie published Fernanda Farias de Albuquerque's 1994 autobiography Princesa, which deals with her identity as a Brazilian migrant trans woman as well as a sex worker.^[4] Hassan Itab's La tana della iena (1991; "The Hyena's Den"), which was an autobiography of his life as a Palestinian militant integrating into Italian society.^[4]^[5] The co-operative also worked with social campaigner Don Luigi Di Liegro [ it] and published his work on migration.^[4]
