The book delves into the intricate relationship between ventriloquism and various forms of expression, including art and philosophy. Goldblatt explores themes such as the duality of voice in the ventriloquist-dummy dynamic, the concept of self-effacement in communication, and the ancient Greek idea of ecstasy. He also addresses the idea of bringing inanimate objects to life, highlighting the anthropomorphic tendencies inherent in this art form. Through these explorations, the work offers a unique perspective on the nature of voice and identity in creative practices.
