Queer Poetics in the Cinema of Pier Paolo Pasolini is a groundbreaking work that explores the intersection of queer theory and film studies. Engaging with Pasolini's films, this book offers a unique perspective on the representation of queerness in cinema.

Pasolini was a controversial and influential filmmaker whose work often explored themes of sexuality, class, and religion. His films were often met with censorship and critical backlash, but they have also been praised for their groundbreaking exploration of queer identity.

The book explores the ways in which Pasolini's films challenge traditional notions of gender and sexuality, and how they offer a more nuanced and complex understanding of queer identity.

The book also examines the ways in which Pasolini's films engage with other forms of art, such as literature, painting, and music. The book argues that Pasolini's films are not simply adaptations of these other forms, but rather that they offer a unique and innovative way of understanding them.
