yellow blue tibia

Yellow Blue Tibia.............

Errr, what?

I have no idea.

Isn't Google a wonderful tool? What do you get?

"Yellow Blue Tibia"...It's a book, but nobody seems to get that the title comes from an innocuous little phrase in Transparent Things. It sounds like War of the Worlds--no, scratch that, it sounds like the aftermath of WotW - when WotW aired for the first time in 1938, people actually thought that the events of the radio play were actually happening. In Yellow Blue Tibia writers are brought together first in WWII and again during the Cold War to create an alien menace to bring the people of Russia together for a common threat, like WotW, only on purpose.

At least I'll now know what to say if I find a boyfriend in Russia. Yellowbluetibia!
