Mikhail Bulgakov: The White Guard

The novel "The White Guard" is a story about the "murky haze" that descended upon the native land, a story of civil war, a terrible time of fratricide, a story of the collapse of traditions and foundations, a story of bloodshed, told through the eyes of an eyewitness and participant in the events. The writer began work on the novel "The White Guard" back in 1922, and in March 1923, the magazine "Rossiya" already featured an announcement that M. Bulgakov was finishing the novel. "The White Guard" is Bulgakov's first major work, and the mood with which Bulgakov entered Russian literature left its mark on all of his subsequent work. The motifs of his final "sunset novel," "The Master and Margarita," already resonate in this first "great prose" by Bulgakov.
