4.0 out of 5 stars Useful guide to difficult references, October 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Master and Margarita: A Critical Companion (Northwestern/Aatseel Critical Companions to Russian Literature) (Paperback)
I'm not a big reader of literary criticism, but this book really helped me. I loved Master & Margarita the first time I read it, but there are several references that just escaped me. This book, coupled with the new Vintage/Ardis edition which has copious endnotes, helps clarify things that would normally escape a non-Russia unfamiliar with life in 1930's Russia.

5.0 out of 5 stars Critical Companion a Citical Resource, November 16, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Master and Margarita: A Critical Companion (Northwestern/Aatseel Critical Companions to Russian Literature) (Paperback)
Master and Margarita: A Critical Companion (AATSEEL)

This is optional reading for a book group of mature, non-specialist readers of the novel that I am currently facilitating. They love it! It makes the novel less baffling for some of them, and reassures non-literature specialist readers, with apologies to Behemoth, that there's more than one way to skin a cat. It banishes the fear and enhances the fun of reading something as scary as a "cult classic."
