Abstract
In order to inquire into the relation between writing and sexuality according to Pasolini, this essay will investigate the literary reviews, written by the author and posthumously collected in the book Descrizioni di descrizioni, as well as the novel Petrolio and the film Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma. Considering that, for Pasolini, every critique is an obscene act, the main goal in this essay is to explore how the process of writing results simultaneously in a gesture of creation and destruction.
