    Background Reading for The Master and Margarita

    This will be my fourth time reading this novel and I’m beyond excited to be doing it with this group! As I said in the announcement post that went out to all my subscribers, it’s a novel that’s special to me because it makes me think of my late mum. I was reading it in the middle of the night after having woken up with a premonition. I was lying on the sofa, fully dressed with my book, when the hospital called with the bad news. I thought you would find some background useful before picking up the novel. I read The White Guard, another of Bulgakov’s novels, in a reading group here in October, and I know some of you read it with me. I learned a lot about the author during that reading and it’ll stand me in good stead for this reading of The Master and Margarita. This is a public episode.
