An oblique, downward-angled photograph captures a book titled "NOVANTA" by Valerio Mattioli, resting on a light beige, textured surface. The location is Unknown, Unknown. The book cover is predominantly dark, transitioning into red and orange hues with dynamic yellow light trails on the right side. White text identifies the author "VALERIO MATTIOLI" at the top right and the title "NOVANTA" at the bottom left. The publisher's name "EINAUDI" is visible at the upper left. A smaller subtitle, "UNA CONTROSTORIA CULTURALE," is located at the bottom right. The cover imagery depicts two individuals: one person, partially visible in the upper center, appears to be reclining or in motion against the red background; another person, a woman, is visible in the lower right, characterized by a "shhh" gesture with a finger to her lips, partially obscured by the light trails. A plain white square sticker or blank space is affixed to the central portion of the cover, obscuring parts of the figures and text. The book cover displays minor scuffs and surface wear.
