The Master and Margarita

“Help, Lord, to finish the novel ",” one of the draft sketches for the book in 1931 was signed by Bulgakov.
We believe that these words of the author refute all the interpretations of those who consider this work a hymn to dark forces. And we offer another view of the main idea of ​​the novel.
Moscow. The twenties of the last century. Mass persecution of the church, the closure of temples and the executions of priests. Was it possible to write a novel about Christ at that time? No.
Mikhail Bulgakov decides on an incredible experiment in its strength and ingenuity. He introduces the image of dark power into the novel, and introduces this image in contact with the real life of Muscovites. And we observe the disfigured Soviet man on the pages of the novel. We observe his unbelief, his damaged attitude to good and evil. No one believes in the devil, no one believes in God. Obviously, in such an environment, dark forces feel free.
Bulgakov understood everything, personally experienced this tragedy and found a brilliant solution.
With the help of metaphysical parables, he expressed his pain and personal attitude to the terrible consequences of the revolution.
