The daughter of a theatre critic and translator from Liguria and an artist from Turin, she was born in Milan and was educated at the University of Milan, receiving a degree in philosophy in 1996. In 1988, she published her first book La grande Eulalia, a collection of short stories which won the Giuseppe Berto Prize.

Her work explores a reality outside of day-to-day life. Myth plays an important role in her writing. She often is inspired by music, including references to music and making use of musical metaphors.

Capriolo is also a reviewer for Corriere della Sera and a translator of German fiction. Her work has been translated into several languages including English, French, Spanish, German, Danish, Dutch and Japanese.
