Author Description
Mikhail Afanasyevich Bulgakov
(Russian:
Михаил Булгаков
) was a Russian writer, medical doctor, and playwright. His novel
The Master and Margarita
, published posthumously, has been called one of the masterpieces of the 20th century.
He also wrote the novel
The White Guard
and the plays
Ivan Vasilievich, Flight
(also called
The Run
), and
The Days of the Turbins
. He wrote mostly about the horrors of the Russian Civil War and about the fate of Russian intellectuals and officers of the Tsarist Army caught up in revolution and Civil War.
Some of his works (
Flight
, all his works between the years 1922 and 1926, and others) were banned by the Soviet government, and personally by
Joseph Stalin
, after it was decided by them that they "glorified emigration and White generals". On the other hand, Stalin loved
The Days of the Turbins
(also called
The Turbin Brothers
) very much and reportedly saw it at least 15 times.
