Mikhail Bulgakov Books in Order

Mikhail Bulgakov is a celebrated Russian author, born in Kyiv, Ukraine, on May 15, 1891. He pursued a medical career, but his writing soon took precedence, with notable works like "The Days of the Turbins" (1926) and "Flight" (1927) drawing attention for their sympathetic portrayal of White characters. His satirical treatment of New Economic Plan officials and later, the tyrant and the artist, in plays such as "Molière" (1936), "Don Quixote" (1940), and "Pushkin" (1943), solidified his reputation as a masterful writer. Bulgakov's magnum opus, "The Master and Margarita" (unpublished during his lifetime), is a fantasy novel about the devil and his henchmen set in modern Moscow. Despite facing censorship and criticism, Bulgakov continued to write, producing a biography of Molière and several other plays that showcased his unique style.
