Diaries and selected letters
The first English translation and only edition in print of Bulgakov's diaries and lettersThe career of Mikhail Bulgakov, the author of Master and Margarita-now regarded as one of the masterpieces of 20th-century literature-was characterized by a constant and largely unsuccessful struggle against state censorship. This suppression did not only apply to his art: in 1926 his personal diary was seized by the authorities. From then on he confined his thoughts to letters to his friends and family, as well as to public figures such as Stalin and his fellow Soviet writer Gorky.
