"On the centennial of Federico Fellini's birth and twelve years after the first edition was published, The Book of Dreams is being republished in a new, expanded edition that includes critical analysis and a new graphic design."--Page 6. Originally published in Italian as 'Il libro dei sogni' in 2007. Includes index. "This is a new edition of the diary kept by Federico Fellini, in which the great director faithfully recorded his dreams and nightmares. A highly colorful journey into the boundless territory of a genius's imagination, this is a work that added a fundamental element to the study of Federico Fellini and his creative experience. From the late 1960s until 1990, the great director used this diary to represent his nocturnal visions in the form of drawings or, as he himself described them, "scribbles, rushed and ungrammatical notes." Currently out of print, this new edition will include a critical introduction, as well as updated graphic design. It will be published in collaboration with the Municipality of Rimini as well as the Museo Nazionale del Cinema, the Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia, and the Cineteca di Bologna (the three main Italian institutions in the field of cinema). The volume will be released to coincide with the centenary of Federico Fellini's birth (January 2020), which will be celebrated in Italy with a traveling exhibition on the director that will start its journey from Milan in December 2019."--Publisher's website.
