Hi, long time lurker but I never seem to post.
The Master and Margarita, by Mikhail Bulgakov is only £1.89 in the UK store.
$7.35 in the US store I'm afraid. Hopefully it needs no introduction but here's the Amazon blurb.
From the Back Cover
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY WILL SELF
‘Stunning, superb…Bulgakov is one of the greatest Russian writers, perhaps the greatest’ Independent
The devil makes a personal appearance in Moscow accompanied by various demons, including a naked girl and a huge black cat. When he leaves, the asylums are full and the forces of law and order in disarray. Only the Master, a man devoted to truth, and Margarita, the woman he loves, can resist the devil’s onslaught.
TRANSLATED BY MICHAEL GLENNY
About the Author
Mikhail Bulgakov (1891 - 1940) was born and educated in Kiev where he graduated as a doctor in 1916. He rapidly abandoned medicine to write some of the greatest Russian literature of this century. After a lifetime at odds with the stultifying Soviet regime, he died impoverished and blind in 1940, shortly after completing his masterpiece, The Master and Margarita. None of his major fiction was published during his lifetime.
