Welcome to our shop
Welcome to the shop of the Master & Margarita website. Everything you find here has got a link with The Master and Margarita: subtitled movies, music, e-books, essays and ideas for gifts. You can use the menu on the right to go to our catalogs.
Films and TV-series
Many visitors to this site know Vladimir Bortko's TV series, but can't fully enjoy it, because the official DVD was released only in Russian. Some websites offer a box with English subtitles, but these are, to say the least, not really good.
That's why I subtitled the series myself, not only in English but also in Spanish, Dutch, German, Italian and French. I also subtitled Yuri Kara's film, which was made in 1994, but only officialy released in 2011.
Books
Your webmaster has published some books about The Master and Margarita, including the Annotations per chapter which you can find on this website, as well as the illustrations which he made himself in 2020.
Music
The music catalog includes musical pieces inspired by The Master and Margarita which are hard to find, or which were ne-ver published before on CD. It includes also the soundtrack composed by Igor Kornelyuk for Vladimir Bortko's TV-series.
e-books
In the e-books catalog you can find free downloads of stories written by Mikhail Bulgakov, some of which were never publi-shed before. You will also find here the sources consulted by Bulgakov for his research to write The Master and Margarita.
Essays about The Master and Margarita
This catalog includes free downloads of studies, essays and interpretations of The Master and Margarita. I don't necessarily agree with all of them, but they can be useful to understand the novel better, or as source material for master papers.
Essays about the Stalin period
This catalog includes free dowbloads of studies, essays, tes-temonies and comments about the period in which Mikhail Bulgakov wrote The Master and Margarita. They can help to understand the satirical aspects of the novel.
Posters, cards and calendars
The artist Arina Gheorghita wanted to support this website by making a series of illustrations of The Master and Margarita, and we used them to make calendars, greeting cards, post-cards, notebooks and even playing cards.

Why a shop?
This website was launched in November 2006 as a very simple work of an amateur in the true sense of the word. Meanwhile, the project has become a site of more than 3,000 pages with hundreds of photos, video and music clips and archive documents.
A work of such size, however, calls for fi-nancial resources beyond the potential of an amateur. One solution could be to accept ad-vertising. But I don't want to do this. Therefo-re I opened this shop, where mainly subtitled films are available.
You will also find here unpublished works by Mikhail Bulgakov and studies and essays on The Master and Margarita. You can down-load those texts for free.
For those who don't want to buy anything, but yet would want to support the website, I created a page for donations.
The proceeds of the e-store will not be used to get personal benefits from it. They will be used entirely to keep this site free of adver-tising, and to maintain and develop it further.
