Description
Kiev - Kyiv - is in chaos. Russia has withdrawn from World War I but the Germans have set up a puppet government in Ukraine.
Civil war rages: the Bolsheviks have seized power in Russia, but the anti-revolutionary White Guard who have fled to Ukraine, are rallying to resist.
In the meantime, Ukrainian nationalists are camped outside the capital, and a Red army is on its way to bring everyone to heel.
While all this is going on, the Turbin family try to eke out their existence in Kyiv and discuss what they should do.
They are exactly the sort of family - monarchist intelligentsia - for whom the future looks particularly menacing. Bulgakov's brilliant and evocative prose brings the city and the moment unforgettably to life and sheds some fascinating light on the complex interwoven histories of Ukraine and Russia.
