Everything You Always Wanted to Know...

January 18, 2021

Last weekend, we finished the English version of a new book written by your webmaster with the title Everything You Always Wanted To Know About The Master & Margarita.

Like the previously published Dutch version, this work contains, besides the Annotations per Chapter from this website, very detailed descriptions of all the characters from the novel and their prototypes. It also describes the places Bulgakov wrote about in the novel and the role they played in the author's life.

In the appendices of this book you will find the text of a passage that does not appear in the English translations of the novel, as well as the full text of Bears in the Caviar, the hilarious eyewitness report that Charles Thayer wrote about the sensational Spring Festival organised by the American ambassador William Bullitt in Moscow on April 23, 1935. Mikhail Bulgakov himself was there, and it inspired him to describe the famous Ball of Satan.

The book Everything You Always Wanted To Know About The Master & Margarita can be ordered as a 476-page paperback from Lulu Press, or as an e-book in PDF format, which can be downloaded from this website.
