Bowie Book Club Podcast

The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov


Listen Later

Welcome to another episode of the Bowie Book Club, where wild speculation and grasping for straws about Bowie’s favorite books has reigned supreme since 2016. This time we read * The Master And Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov, one of our favorites on the list - a fairy tale that careens through the Moscow of the 1920's, and is otherwise impossible to describe accurately. In the spirit of inaccuracy, Greg got several names and facts wrong in this episodes, which he blames on g-g-g-g-ghosts.
