'A realist novel of apprentice gangsters.'

This year marks 50 years since the passing of Pier Paolo Pasolini, an artist who Susan Sontag once remarked was "the most remarkable figure to have emerged in Italian arts and letters since the second World War”.

Here we have an early english edition of Pasolini's fantastic novel 'A Violent Life'. First published in Italy in 1959. Written by the renowned film maker, poet, polemicist and novelist, A Violent Life is an uncanny fictional chronicle of the author's death foretold.

Translated from the Italian by William Weaver.
