Il volume raccoglie "Bambole" di Rainer Maria Rilke, "Morale del giocattolo" di Charles Baudelaire e "Sul teatro delle marionette" di Heinrich von Kleist. I tre autori si trovano qui riuniti ed accomunati in un medesimo sguardo rivolto al mondo dell'infanzia, e in particolare al gioco: "un argomento a prima vista puerile" spiega Leone Traverso nella prefazione che accompagna il volume, "ma atto a suscitare interesse anche, e soprattutto, negli adulti cui la propria infanzia non appia solo un'Atlantide sommersa da sabbie leggendarie, ma, qual è, il terriccio di ogni fioritura più tarda".

Summary
There once was a goose called Katerina. Everybody liked her. But she was sad because she was the only goose on her pond.
Sometimes Katerina thought she could see another goose in the side of a shiny car. She'd stare and stare at the other goose and think, "One day that goose will come out. Then I'll no longer be the only goose on the pond."
And suddenly one day ... it did!
