Title: The Master and Margarita
Author: Mikhail Bulgakov

Price: € 8.50
This book is divided into two parts. The first tells the story of two publishers
Russians who encounter by chance (?) In Woland,
the incarnation of Satan. From that moment on, the saventure
one another "unexplained", are intertwined lives and deaths,
common characters and quirky helpers of Satan.
The second part recalls the story of the teacher, the author of a book on
Pontius Pilate, who was imprisoned in an asylum because
believed to be all crazy and his wife, Margaret, who decides to become a witch
save it and go to the ball of Satan.
the thread of the book is the story of Pilate and the day
which condemned Jesus Christ. The book, especially beginning,
is confusing, it is difficult to distinguish the characters, having
Russian surnames are all very similar, seem to overlap.
But once past the opening pages, the story unfolds so pleasant,
takes the reader and can even attach it to Woland,
Satan himself. Recommended for lovers of Russian literature and
who does not mind the great classics.
