More about the book

Exploring the relationship between puppets and their operators, the author reveals a profound insight gained from years of experience in puppeteering. Contrary to the common belief that puppets are mere tools of human control, he argues that the puppeteer is actually subject to the whims and personalities of the marionettes. This thought-provoking perspective challenges traditional notions of agency and highlights the intricate dynamics between creator and creation in the world of puppet theater.
