manuscripts don’t burn
Despite a backlog of previously acquired and still undocumented thrift store used book scores, this copy of The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov demanded immediate attention. Attempts to check this out from the local library have revealed that all cataloged copies have been misplaced in a variety of appropriately hellish bureaucratic ways. I haven’t read The Master and Margerita in more than ten years. This is the first English translation, and I know that it has its critics, but this is the translation that I read previously, and I am excited to read it again.

I am sure there have been more dissertations written on this topic than Gan Q has eyes, so enough said.
