The Master and Margarita

I read this book on the plane over here. Been meaning to read it for ages, but never got round to it. It's a very strange kind of book, and don't quite know what to make of it.

There's a big black six foot cat called Behemoth who is pals with the devil who arrives in Moscow and causes havoc all around. There's also the story of Pontius Pilate meeting Jesus. And there's a character called Archibald Archibaldovich, as I recall. Did he not play for Scotland?

A very odd book and not quite what I expected. It's stuck in my brain, so final analysis is that it must have been good. More on books soon.
