Manuscripts Don't Burn

«Manuscripts Don't Burn» — a book of quotes and aphorisms about creativity, the fate of manuscripts, and literary memory. At the center of this collection — statements by Mikhail Bulgakov. The book includes phrases from prose, plays, diaries, and letters of the writer. The collection gathers alongside statements from the first half of the 20th century, in which the literary debate and the author's observance can be heard. Here, the plot lines are not important, but Bulgakov's very manner of thinking and formulating.
