Paperback. Etat : Good. Black Snow ? Mikhail Bulgakov (Penguin Books, 1971) ISBN: 0140032274 ? Condition: Good ? Sold by Crappy Old Books Welcome to the theatre, where art goes to rehearse forever. Black Snow (also known as A Theatrical Novel ) is Bulgakov?s wicked backstage send-up of Moscow?s high-minded, high-chaos stage world. Our narrator, Sergei Maksudov , writes a novel, then?in a moment of optimism that should have come with a warning label?adapts it for the city?s most prestigious theatre. From there it?s all scripts in triplicate, meetings that reproduce by mitosis, and a director so visionary he can?t see the audience from the top of his genius. Expect: Actors who ?become the role? until the role begs for release. A director ( Ivan Vasilievich ) whose methods resemble weather systems. Committees that edit a play until it becomes a rumour of itself. Rehearsals in which every detail matters except opening night. A writer discovering that success is just failure with better seating. Bulgakov?s satire is knife-sharp and strangely affectionate?he mocks the theatre like a man who can?t stop going back to it. The jokes land in deadpan: a prop crisis treated like geopolitics; a wardrobe fitting that becomes metaphysics; notes on a scene that read like a tax audit. And because this is Bulgakov, there?s a melancholy shimmer under the laughter: a portrait of an artist wrestling with institutions that endlessly applaud the idea of art while quietly strangling the thing itself. The book is famously, perfectly unfinished ?which, considering the subject, feels like the most realistic ending the theatre could offer. This 1971 Penguin Books paperback wears its grey livery like a sly grin. ? Condition: Good ? in Crappy Old Books terms means: a respectable spine-crease (theatrical), pages evenly tanned (Moscow lighting), and a cover still sturdy enough to survive being hurled across the room after your fifth production meeting. Buy it for the backstage gossip, keep it for the sentences that smuggle despair inside a punchline, and shelve it next to your programmes marked ?revival postponed.? Crappy Old Books: purveyors of lightly lived-in paperbacks that know the difference between rehearsal and reality?and laugh anyway. N° de réf. du vendeur 4863
