Dog Heart and Other Moscow Phantasmagorias

Dog Heart and Other Moscow Phantasmagorias

In late September 1921, Mikhail Bulgakov settled in Moscow, where he lived until his death in 1940. The city of forty forties, calm, vainglorious, and hospitable, after the revolution turned into something different in just three or four years —... businesslike, brutal, coiled like a spring. This is how the author first saw Moscow, saw it — and fell in love with this city, which became everything for him: fate, love, tragedy. The genre and everyday details of Moscow life are reproduced in Mikhail Bulgakov's works with absolute precision and authenticity. Sometimes it is unclear where reality ends and fantasy begins. The book is adorned with numerous unique photographs from the 1920s and 1930s, capturing the buildings and views of Moscow described in the master's works.
