Diaboliad by Mikhail Bulgakov
TRADE PAPERBACK [2010] VINTAGE BOOKS LONDON
Beautiful trade paperback printing with attractive rubbry matte cover.
Book is in excellent condition; tight and seemingly unread copy with just a bit of mild shelf wear.
The five, irreverant, satirical and imaginative stories contained in Diaboliad caused an uproar upon the book's first publication in 1925. Full of invention, they display Bulgakov's breathtaking stylistic range, moving at dizzying speed from grotesque satire to science fiction, from the plainest realism to the most madcap of fantasies. Diaboliad is a wonderful introduction to literature's most uncategorisable and subversive genius.
