Walking with Pier Paolo Pasolini
Walking with Pier Paolo Pasolini is neither a biography nor an academic essay, and not quite a travel guide. It is a journey on foot - attentive to streets, silences, and lingering ghosts.
From Rome to Bologna, from Casarsa to the outskirts of memory, the narrator walks alongside Pier Paolo Pasolini - poet, filmmaker, polemicist, one of the most incandescent figures of the twentieth century - while allowing his own personal stories, doubts, and emotions to surface. Each place becomes an echo chamber: a Roman street calls up a line of poetry, a Bolognese square revives a political struggle, a Friulian landscape whispers of childhood and exile.
Pasolini appears here not as a monument, but as a living presence: contradictory, fragile, prophetic. Far from frozen myths, this book asks what it still means today to think, to write, to love, and to walk against the current.
An intimate and erudite narrative, where geography becomes literature and walking becomes a way of questioning the world.
A book for curious readers, armchair travelers, and fellow wanderers.
