The Master and Margarita

Review of The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov

       The soviet union kept this book out of print. The author should thank them for doing so. Its suppression is what gave it its fame.  If it was printed straight off it would have been just one of many mediocre books that never made it.

       Truly a work of art.  It may be more difficult to understand for people who never lived in the USSR, but it still offers a lot.  Even ignoring all the Soviet stuff this book still offers a very interesting insite into the mindset of Pontius Pilat as he sentenced Jesus to death.  That was what Bulgakov was really trying to write about, the things about the USSR was just to get the book past Soviet censorship (it was censored anyway, I believe).  The best book I ever read, right on par with "East of Eden".

       It is a great book! But it is hard to read and not very easy to understand because it is about the Soviet Union and its structure, how thimgs happened in this country! And people who have never lived in Soviet Union will never understand this novel 100%.
