The Master and Margarita

THE ORIGINAL AND BEST TRANSLATION BY MICHAEL GLENNY

50th Anniversary Edition

Afterwards, when it was frankly too late, descriptions were issued of the man: expensive grey suit, grey beret, one green eye and the other black.

He arrives in Moscow one hot summer afternoon with various alarming accomplices, including a demonic, fast-talking black cat.

When he leaves, the asylums are full and the forces of law and order are in disarray.

Only the Master, a man devoted to truth, and Margarita, the woman he loves, can resist the devil?

€™s onslaught.

Brilliant and blackly comic, The Master and Margarita was repressed by Stalin?

€™s authorities and only published after the author?

€™s death.
