Description
The Russian master's most infamous novel, a
dystopian fever dream about cloning, alternative
histories, and world domination.Blue Lard is an
act of desecration. Blue Lard is what's left
after the towering masterpieces of Russian
literature have been blown to smithereens, the
most graphic, shocking, controversial, and
celebrated book to be published in Russia since
the end of Communism. Denounced as an abomination
on publication in 1999âa crowd of angry Putin
supporters gathered in front of Moscowâs
Bolshoi Theater to toss shredded copies of
Sorokinâs books into an enormous
papier-mÃchà toiletâthis ferocious takedown
of Russian greatness has since found its way into
the canon of Russian literature itself. The book
begins in a futuristic laboratory where genetic
scientists speak in a dialect of Russian mixed
with Chinese. There they work to clone famous
Russian writers, who are then made to produce
texts in the style of their forebears. The goal
of this âœscript-processâ? is not the texts
themselves but the blue lard that collects in the
small of their backs as they write. This
substance is to be used to power reactors on
the moonâthat is, until a sect of devout
nationalists breaks in to steal the blue lard,
planning to send it back in time to an alternate
version of the Soviet Union, one that exists on
the margins of a Europe conquered by a
long-haired Hitler with the ability to shoot
electricity from his hands. What will come of
this blue lard? Who will finally make use of its
mysterious powers? Max Lawtonâs translation of
Blue Lard, the first into English, captures this
key work in all its grotesque, havoc-making,
horrifying, visceral intensity.
