Mijaíl Bulgákov
Mijaíl Bulgákov was a renowned Russian writer and playwright, best known for his novel 'The Master and Margarita', which is considered one of the greatest works of Russian literature. Born in 1891, Bulgákov's works often explored themes of love, power, and the supernatural, reflecting the complexities of Soviet society during his time. His writing style combined elements of fantasy with sharp social critique, and he faced significant censorship and political challenges throughout his career. 'The Master and Margarita', published posthumously in the 1960s, gained immense popularity for its imaginative narrative intertwining the story of the Devil visiting Soviet Moscow with the tale of Pontius Pilate.
