Bulgakov. The Master and Margarita. A Masterpiece. Surreal, futuristic. The poet Montale, one of the few Italian Nobel prizes, defined it a miracle.
We will find everything there, including Satan (in disguise) and Behemoth, plus Pontius Pilate.

It is still in fashion in Italy and they keep providing new translations and editions. The Russian have made a 10 episodes TV mini series in 2005.

There I found a new word for poor old dumb me: Menippean satire.

I will reread the book whatever.

This should sixth it.
