About this book
'Bulgakov is one of the greatest Russian writers, perhaps <i>the</i> greatest' <i>Independent</i><br><br>Written in secret during the darkest days of Stalin's reign, <i>The Master and Margarita</i> became an overnight literary phenomenon when it was finally published it, signalling artistic freedom for Russians everywhere. Bulgakov's carnivalesque satire of Soviet life describes how the Devil, trailing fire and chaos in his wake, weaves himself out of the shadows and into Moscow one Spring afternoon. Brimming with magic and incident, it is full of imaginary, historical, terrifying and wonderful characters, from witches, poets and Biblical tyrants to the beautiful, courageous Margarita, who will do anything to save the imprisoned writer she loves. <br><br>Translated by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky with an Introduction by Richard Pevear
