Book Reviews of Zoyka's Apartment: A Tragic Farce in Three Acts (Great Translations for Actors Series)
Book Review: Zoyka's Apartment
Summary: 5 Stars
As an actor, I fell completely in love with Zoyka's Apartment. Bulgakov has an amazing capacity for imagery. The characters are vivid and enthralling. His sense of comedy remains unsurpassed by the writers of today. I highly recommend this hysterically ludicrous play to any fan of Bulgakov. You may also enjoy reading anything by Kurt Vonnegut, his work runs along the same lines as Bulgakov's.
Summary of Zoyka's Apartment: A Tragic Farce in Three Acts (Great Translations for Actors Series)
Zoyka's Apartment captures the exotic image and the real heartbeat of an amazing city at a fascinating moment: Moscow in the Soviet equivalent of the roaring 20's, in a pause between the cyclone of the revolution and the inferno of the purges, a window of desperate opportunity. Tremendous danger mingles with heady excitement, as everyone scrambles to get together as many rubles as possible and escape to Paris before the inevitable crackdown.How will smart, bold, practical Zoyka manage to get enough rubles in a hurry? Her only assets are a large apartment and an even larger imagination...
