Annual October Reading of Master and Margarita


October 1, I will embark once again upon reading The Master and Margarita (one of my favorite books). Many are easily turned off by it's - at times - confusing stories. But when you look at when it was written and think about some of its themes and symbolism, the story begins to have much more meaning then just talking cats playing chess and naked witches flying around on pigs. Be a witness to Pilate and Jesus, watch Judas beg, and Benga be a loyal dog to someone who seems to never show any mercy.

Have you read it? Many are turned off by it. It is a bit all over the place, the names confusing, and you wonder what any of it has to do with each other. It's worth taking the time.

Do svidaniya!
