In one strand, the Devil — disguised as the mysterious Professor Woland — descends upon Soviet Moscow with his chaotic retinue, wreaking supernatural havoc on the city's corrupt literati and bureaucrats. In the other, a tormented writer known only as the Master has penned a novel about Pontius Pilate and his fateful encounter with Jesus of Nazareth. Bulgakov's masterwork savagely satirises Stalinist society while simultaneously presenting a timeless meditation on cowardice, love, creativity, and the nature of good and evil. Written in secret and suppressed for decades, this is a novel of extraordinary imaginative power — bold, subversive, and hauntingly beautiful.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956338012379,"sku":"2026200008422-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/78a44578-4344-4b59-bcd5-b48664eba759.png?v=1783499832","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008422-secondhand-the-master-and-margarita","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
