The Master and Margarita

Jesus Christ this was exquisite. I usually don't read Russian literature because it's not up my alley, but this has been a surprising exception. Bulgakov mixes the traditional patterns of big Russian writers such as Dostoevsky and Tolstoi, but with a splash of magical fantasy. Woland has been a fucking delight; I mean, how many books have the Devil himself present? Even then, how many are that well written when compared to Woland? Behemoth and Azazello made for a unique comedic duo. Until now this is probably one of the best books I've read in 2021.
