The "blue notebook" became part of the "return to Lenin" process characteristic of the "thaw", when it seemed to many that the "restoration of Lenin's norms of life" would be able to solve all the problems of our time. The peculiarity of Kazakevich's story is that Lenin is shown not so much acting as thinking. From Kazakevich's letter to Khrushchev: "Over two years ago I finished the story "the Blue notebook" (originally it was called "Lenin in the Spill"). More than two years all praise it, want to print, but do not print... After many months of work and long discussions, the story, in an improved, corrected form, was resolved by the Central Committee of the party. It was read and approved by comrades Suslov, Mukhitdinov, Pospelov. The story is typed, laid out, promised readers in the first issue for 1961 and... banned again."
