[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Those are two really interesting books to read back to back! (I had the same feeling about Martyr.) Bulgakov is a wonder. [/quote] What do you like about Bulgakov? (Curious about whether to add to my TBR list.)[/quote] I'm the poster you're responding to here. I was a Russian language major in the early 90s and read a his books in the original (talk about confusing!) and translation. He was a political and social satirist at a time when he could get into a lot of trouble with the censors. He threw in enough fantasy to excuse the inappropriate commentary, which was really impressive. He definitely ran afoul of the censors at times. Read his play Ivan Vasilievich for a great commentary on Soviet life.[/quote] NP. I’ve been meaning to read The Master and Margarita since I lived in Eastern Europe. [/quote]
