    “Manuscripts don’t burn.” — Mikhail Bulgakov

    …Speaking of Mohammad Rasoulof…

    It’s Mikhail Bulgakov’s birthday. The author of The Master and Margarita, one of the greatest novels of the 20th century. (It’s not his only work. There are many others. But I’ll be focusing on Master and Margarita one today.)

    It’s a miracle that Master and Margarita even exists. Bulgakov wrote it in the late 1920s, a terrible time in Russia, although even more terrible times were coming. The book is not a “critique” of Soviet society. It is an indictment, an evisceration, the truths so appalling that they can only be expressed allegorically. But the message is crystal clear.

    Recently, a graphic novel adaptation of MASTER AND MARGARITA was released, with astonishing illustrations by Polish graphic designer and artist Andrzej Klimowski.

    Bulgakov started out as a physician before segueing to writing. Post Russian Civil War, in the 1920s, he found it increasingly difficult to get his work past the censors, even though Stalin himself was a “fan” of a couple of his plays. Stalin protected Bulgakov, putting in a good word, essentially. Eventually, though, Stalin’s protection vanished.
