Synopsis:
The Master and Margarita is a satirical novel by Mikhail Bulgakov, written in the Soviet Union between 1928 and 1940 and published posthumously in a censored version in 1966, with the full text appearing later. It interweaves three storylines: the Devil (Professor Woland) visiting atheistic 1930s Moscow, a love story between the Master and Margarita, and the Master’s novel about Pontius Pilate and Jesus Christ. The book is a masterpiece of 20th-century literature, blending fantasy, dark comedy, and philosophical depth to critique Soviet society and explore themes of good vs. evil, truth, and artistic freedom, famously asserting that ”manuscripts don’t burn”.
