The autobiographical trilogy (“Blue Bloods”, “The Little House in Bois-Colombes”, “Blonde Beasts”) provides a wide panorama of the turning point years for Russia in the 80s-90s. Marusya Klimova's novels are characterized by extreme detachment of the author's view, indifference to good and evil, attention to absurd and comic details, blurred boundaries between common sense and madness. The images of newly minted Russian dandies and transvestites created by the writer, who easily change their masks and outfits, perfectly correspond to the atmosphere of the universal carnival of those years, marked by a rapid change in social identifications.
In her books and interviews, Marusya Klimova usually positions herself as a decadent, marginal and Nietzschean. According to the New World magazine, “the writers relevant to Marusya Klimova are united by misanthropy, marginality, sexual perversion, contempt for the norm, for “bourgeois” morality (which is always treated as philistine). The direction of the political spectrum does not really matter - as long as it is at its very edge."
The novel "Blue Bloods" was written in 1991, first published in 1996 in an edition of 100 copies.
