GUIDA 1986 191 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: APPUNTO A BIRO (200: NUMERO DI COPIE STOCCATE) AL MARGINE ANGOLARE SUPERIORE ESTERNO DELLA QUARTA DI COPERTINA, SEGNI DEL TEMPO E LEGGERE FIORITURE, COME DA FOTO, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. La storia di Marionette, che passione! è incentrata sull'incontro casuale di tre personaggi, incapaci di dare un senso alla propria esistenza. I tre si riveleranno alla fine non diversi da marionette, esseri totalmente in balia delle proprie passioni. Un'opera drammatica, grottesca, che alcuni definiranno legata al pirandellismo. Secondo Gaetano Savatteri, la grandezza di Rosso di San Secondo venne messa in ombra proprio dalla figura di Pirandello.
