"Part manifesto, part aristic joke, Filippo Marinetti's The Futurist Cookbook is a provocative work of art disguised as an easy-to-read cookbook. Here are recipes for ice cream on the moon; candied atmospheric electricities; nocturnal love feasts; sculpted meats; an argument for abolishing pasta. Although at times betraying its author's nationalistic sympathies, The Futurist Cookbook is thought-provoking, whimsical, disdainful of sluggish traditions and delighted by the velocity and promise of modernity."-- Publisher's description.
