    Bulgakov had such a delicate visualization throughout fabulous version of Moscow.It's very interesting how the shocking scenes are linking together,without ever making you think that it's somehow strange.I believe this book is so good because it has the power to manipulate the reader in such way,that he starts living those events,by reading it.I found myself mesmerized of what i was reading and I surely slipped into a dream which was more than real to me.The Behemoth cat,the master, the devil...all were actually!

    I agree with that assessment. The strongest sections of this book are the scenes in ancient Israel involving the Jesus story and Pontius Pilate. It's almost as if they are a separate story. The writing is clear, forceful, memorable. As for the parts on Moscow, I favor the Cat and the celebration of the ghouls.
