Kiev, formerly Kyiv, is in a state of chaos. While Russia has withdrawn from World War I, the Germans have established a puppet government in Ukraine. A civil war is raging, with the Bolsheviks seizing power in Russia and the anti-revolutionary White Guard, who have fled to Ukraine, rallying to resist. Meanwhile, Ukrainian nationalists are camped outside the capital, and a Red army is on its way to bring everyone to heel. Amidst this turmoil, the Turbin family, a monarchist intelligentsia, struggles to survive in Kyiv. They are precisely the kind of family for whom the future holds particular peril. Bulgakov's masterful and evocative prose vividly brings the city and the moment to life, offering a fascinating insight into the complex and intertwined histories of Ukraine and Russia.
