Mikhail Bulgakov’s famous novel interweaves two storylines: the devil’s visit to Soviet Moscow in the 1930s and the story of Pontius Pilate. The main characters are the Master, who wrote the novel about Pilate, and his beloved Margarita, who is ready to do anything to save him. This philosophical work explores themes of good and evil, love and betrayal, freedom, and responsibility. Written in the genre of magical realism, the novel is considered one of the greatest literary achievements of the 20th century and is a cornerstone of world literature.
