I really enjoyed this book, especially the first half. However, there were some racist and sexist comments made. I feel this was due to the book’s age, but it was still present.

This book surprised me in the best of ways. although I hadn't read much about it beforehand, I presumed it would be a piece of dry Russian classical literature, and boy was I fucking wrong. This book was so goddamn funny, sarcastic, ironic, I don't even know, but it had me laughing more than I usually do when I read. Bulgakov was very clever in his way of changing the narrative, giving us the backstory from which we could see, but fellow characters could not. It felt like we always knew more than they did. The only one knowing more than us being Woland, he is almighty. I strongly recommend reading this book.
