Just purchased the Pevear/Volokhonsky translation on Amazon. So its The Master And Margarita & The Maltese Falcon for next 3 weeks. Knowing me, I'll need every moment of it.

Already about 50 pages into the book. Not the most exciting but it *is* interesting.

ETA - I bought it from Kobo with the coupon "FirstRead" which gave me 30% off (of course, it only works if this is your first purchase from Kobo). Last edited by sun surfer; 05-31-2011 at 11:42 PM. |

I'm the same - just bought both from Amazon. Started on Master and the Margarita first. The discussion for The Maltese Falcon won't be until the 20th so I'm not in a hurry to start that one.

I finished the Maltese Falcon last week. Now I'm in the middle of Exodus by Leon Uris, Day of the Jackal and The Master and Margarita. I'm a fairly slow reader so I've got my work cut out for me too.

I've only read 2 chapters and the second was absolutely riveting. I'm not sure what purpose the story of Jesus and Pontius Pilate is going to have for the rest of the book but I devoured it.
