| book description |

This monograph offers the first-ever, full-length analysis of the most irreverent book of Italian Futurism: Lâ€™anguria lirica, printed in 1934 on tin metal sheets, with design and poetic text by Tullio dâ€™Albisola and illustrations by Bruno Munari. This study, which features the unabridged reproduction of the pages of the tin book, accompanied by the first English translation of the poem, aims to disentangle the complex relationship between text and image in this total artwork. It shows how the endless series of material transformations at its core â€“ of woman into food, of love into desecrating religion, of man into machine, of poetry into matter â€“ fostered a radical change in poetry-writing, thus breaking away from a stagnant lyrical past.
