The Passion of Pier Paolo Pasolini

by Sam Rohdie

Overview

". . . a keen and brilliant critical account of Pasolini's films and writings . . ." —Italica

"Rohdie's personal, idiosyncratic critical style is backed up by serious scholarly research, as the rich bibliography attests. This is one of the most original recent additions to the ever-growing literature on Pasolini." —Choice

" . . . refreshingly personal and full of unpredictable tangents." —Film Quarterly

Sam Rohdie has written a personal, wonderfully lucid account of Pier Paolo Pasolini's cinema and literature.
