The Life of Monsieur de Molière: A Portrait by Mikhail Bulgakov
This portrait of Moliere, by Mikhail Bulgakov, goes far beyond mere biography. The Russian master brings a kindred spirit vividly to life in this novelistic story of art and the struggle it demands. Mikhail Bulgakov’s The Life of Monsieur de Moliere is a fascinating portrait of the great French seventeenth-century satirist by one of the great Russian satirists of our own century.

In entrambi i casi, attraverso le imprevedibili e nefaste conseguenze che scaturiscono dagli esperimenti si dispiega una satira mordace della società e della vita culturale moscovita. Alle facezie scintillanti sul mondo artistico e letterario – che troverà la sua collocazione ideale nel Maestro e Margherita – si affianca l’amarezza per l’arroganza e l’ottusità del potere, che rovina le migliori risorse manipolandole e trasformandole nelle peggiori
