About the event
Set against the backdrop of Stalin's Moscow and ancient Jerusalem, this novel weaves political satire with magical realism, as the devil, disguised as Woland, disrupts the Soviet capital. The story follows the Master, a writer silenced by the oppressive regime, and his lover Margarita, who makes a fateful pact to save him.
Expect engaging discussions on themes of artistic freedom, the nature of evil, and the complexities of human relationships. Whether you're revisiting this classic or reading it for the first time, come ready to share your insights and interpretations. We look forward to seeing you there!
