Per spiegare allaspirante futurista "come si seducono le donne"; Marinetti ricorre molto spesso a episodi della sua vita; alimentando limmagine di un tombeur de femmes fulmineo e irresistibile. In questo senso il libro rappresenta il passaggio del futurismo da movimento artistico e letterario a movimento di costume: il fondatore non si rivolge piugrave; soltanto agli "uomini di genio"; artisti o scrittori; ma a tutti gli aspiranti seduttori; se i manifesti sono prontuari in parte concepiti per dimostrare che chiunque puograve; diventare un letterato futurista con un po di coraggio e qualche sforzo; lo scopo del testo egrave; dimostrare che tutti possono diventare futuristi; se non in letteratura; almeno in amore; e in guerra; dal momento che le doti dellamatore futurista coincidono con quelle del buon soldato: coraggio; rapiditagrave;; intelligenza strategica; rifiuto delle "complicazionihellip;". Un testo; per lepoca di edizione - 1917; scabroso e temerario; ma come in fondo era il carattere di Marinetti; sempre pronto alla provocazione e alla polemica.

Time and again; as I read this book; I felt as if the author actively disliked or resented Bowie. Doggett makes him sound like a huckster pulling one over on his fans and critics. I wondered if he had an axe to grind. If this was about Bowies 80s output; Doggetts negative criticism would make sense; but it doesnt fit Bowie in his prime.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. A Disjointed; Illuminating ExperienceBy J. SmallridgeId read "You Never Give Me Your Money" a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. The author brought home to me the troubled history of The Beatles. Given how much I enjoyed that work; and the fact that Im fascinated by David Bowie; I eagerly awaited this book. I wasnt disappointed.This biography is rich; full of fascinating insights into Bowie and his music. It seems as though there is something to learn on every page; in every section. I particularly liked how Doggett breaks up the work into analyses of each song; which allowed me to read in any order that I chose. I often read the interludes first and then went back to read about each individual song. I also can see myself buying various songs and then referring back to this work in the future to obtain greater meaning in the future.Some readers might be upset that this isnt a traditional biography. However; if one can get beyond that fact; one will find something far more interesting. And perhaps something far more lasting.1 of 2 people found the following review helpful.
