'A controversial dramatist, closet novelist of genius, and theologian's son trained as a medical doctor, Bulgakov more than any other Stalinist-era writer balanced the realities of the wounded body and the transcendent spiritIn this wonderful brief biography, J.A.E. Curtis shows how Bulgakov's creative gifts were crippled as well as inspired by the caprice and charisma of power.' - Caryl Emerson, Princeton University
