This book is all a bite. There are male lovers who bite breasts, necks, arms, legs and any other available body part of the unfortunate companions; fatal and seductive women who indulge in these bites with voluptuousness that others hide, more prohibited, pleasures; unrepentant serial bites and one-time bites, of one night, victims of uncontrollable raptus; and many of them, if not all, in the throes of homicidal impulses. And then bats, dark and stormy nights, barley, satanic and tribal rites; in conclusion, all the macabre-fantastic paraphernalia that accompanies the human erotic imagination (but above all male) at least from the sublime invention of Dracula by Bram Stoker. Naturally, Futurism was filled with these slightly crazy and very morbid oddities, who has always found ample sources of inspiration in non-conformist fantasies. Starting with the founder and maximum leader Marinetti, all the writings of the movement are dripping with vampires and their exploits. Guido Andrea Pautasso, with the air of a philologist, he is able to track down every little clue on the ground, with references so vast that many times one gets the feeling that they are completely invented: why titles like Laughter and shave against visible and invisible beards of the free word poet Fernando Cervelli or The soul in a nightgown, poems by that Diego Calcagno, they seem to have been created from scratch by the author in the mood for jokes. But no, he swears, it's all true, all certified and documented by the vast bibliography at the end of the volume. All that remains is to take his word for it, hoping that such in-depth research has not made him a bit of a vampire too ...
