14.99 €
The book contains materials reflecting the life and work of the great Russian writer Mikhail Afanasyevich Bulgakov. The author talks about the writer's family and friends, his friends and literary contemporaries, about how Bulgakov, one of the most popular Soviet playwrights of the 1920s, was forced to remain silent in the 1930s, but continued to write his main novel, The Master and Margarita, "for the drawer". The reader will learn about Bulgakov's satirical stories, one of which, "Heart of a Dog", enjoys continued popularity today. A large chapter is devoted to the novel "The White Guard", which describes the beginning of the Civil War in Kyiv from personal experience. In this novel, according to the poet Maximilian Voloshin, Bulgakov managed to capture "the soul of Russian strife". The reader will be able to find answers to the mysteries of many of Bulgakov's works, he will find out who became the prototypes of their heroes, how the political realities of Soviet Russia and, in particular, the images of such Bolshevik leaders as Lenin and Trotsky were reflected in Bulgakov's works.
