Böcker av Mikhail Bulgakov

Features a wealthy Moscow surgeon Filip Preobrazhensky who implants the pituitary gland and testicles of a drunken petty criminal into the body of a stray dog. As the dog slowly transforms into a man, and man into a slovenly, lecherous government official, the doctor's life descends into chaos.

This is Bulgakov's semi-autobiographical story of a writer who fails to sell his novel and fails to commit suicide. When his play is taken up by the theatre, literary success beckons, but he has reckoned without the grotesquely inflated egos of the actors, directors and theatre managers.

A collection of 6 plays from Mikhail Bulgakov, considered by many to be among the foremost Russian playwrights of the first post-revolutionary generation. The plays featured in this collection include "The White Guard", based on his expereinces as a White defending Kiev against the Bolsheviks.

Daniel Radcliffe. The devil with his retinue, a poet incarcerated in a mental institution for speaking the truth, and a startling re-creation of the story of Pontius Pilate, constitute the elements out of which Mikhail Bulgakov wove The Master and Margarita, the unofficial masterpiece of twentieth-century Soviet fiction.
