Le "Lettere dal carcere" di Antonio Gramsci vennero pubblicate, su decisione di Togliatti, per la prima volta da Einaudi nel 1947 in una edizione costituita da 218 testi. Si trattava di una raccolta incompleta, che però per prima portava a conoscenza del grande pubblico l'opera di Gramsci. Il libro vinse il premio Viareggio di quell'anno. Nel 1965 uscì la nuova edizione Einaudi, a cura di Caprioglio e Fubini, con la pubblicazione di 428 testi. Le lettere hanno come destinatari principalmente i due nuclei familiari: la famiglia d'origine con la madre, Peppina Marcias, le sorelle, Teresina e Grazietta, e il fratello Carlo che vive a Milano e la famiglia acquisita, russa: la moglie Giulia Schucht, la cognata, Tatiana, i figli, Delio e Giuliano, e l'amico Piero Sraffa, professore di economia a Cambridge.
