2019ill., br. Uno, nessuno e centomila Gianduja. La storia del burattino simbolo del Piemonte è talmente vasta e variegata da meritare un libro che la affronti analizzandola sotto tutti i punti di vista. Il lettore potrà scoprire chi furono gli inventori di Gianduja - dei quali si forniscono forse per la prima volta degli spunti biografici precisi e documentati - e si sorprenderà della complessità degli spettacoli che lo videro protagonista. Immagini d'epoca delle Giandujeidi e dei carnevali ottocenteschi permetteranno di "immergersi" in una Torino molto, molto diversa da quella odierna. Ed oggi? Gianduja vive ancora nell'arte di marionettisti e burattinai che, intervistati dall'autore, narreranno il loro particolarissimo mondo. Per concludere con la realtà delle associazioni, la Famija Turinèisa e l'Associassion Piemontèisa che mantengono viva l'immagine del Gianduja simbolo di Torino; in modo particolare, questo volume ha il pregio di contenere l'autobiografia di Andrea Flamini, per oltre mezzo secolo il Gianduja dell'Associassion, dettata all'autore con il desiderio di vederla, prima o poi, pubblicata.
