Three chapters, following the chronology of the journeys

In the summer of 1959 Pasolini drove the length of the Italian coast in his Millecento and wrote it up in La lunga strada di sabbia, a little-known piece already full of his poetry and of remarks about the state of his country that are authentic and at times cutting. Sixty years later Vey took the same route, alone at the wheel of a van, going back to the places he described. Thousands of kilometres produced photographs, video, sound and words; like Pasolini's, the result is worth more as poetry than as reportage. The third part of a trilogy, arranged in three chapters that follow the order of the journeys.

ABOUT

The project

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.

Images and rights

Covers, interior pages and descriptions are shown to introduce and identify the books, always crediting publisher, author and photographer and linking back to the publisher. We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days. If you are a publisher, an author or a photographer and you want something changed or removed, write to info@spineindex.it.
