Strange Pronunciation
Reviewed: 03-15-23
The native speaker has an odd way of pronouncing phrases. Right off the bat, she pronounces the phrase "I would like a coffee" as "Kohe wa kudasai" My wife, who is Japanese, pronounces it, "Kohe o kudasai." Google Translate pronounces it the same way as my wife. So now I don't trust her pronunciation and I'm only 3 minutes into the audiobook.

Story
The Devil comes to Moscow, but he isn't all bad; Pontius Pilate sentences a charismatic leader to his death, but yearns for redemption; and a writer tries to destroy his greatest tale, but discovers that manuscripts don't burn. Multi-layered and entrancing, blending sharp satire with glorious fantasy, The Master and Margarita is ceaselessly inventive and profoundly moving. In its imaginative freedom and raising of eternal human concerns, it is one of the world's great novels.

Annoying Narration
Reviewed: 12-11-21
It's going to be a chore to listen to this audiobook in its entirety. The various English accents the narrator uses do not fit the story at all.

A so-so audio book
Reviewed: 05-11-17
The provided PDF does not appear to have anything to do with the audio book itself. Without a printed guide, this just seems like a random collection of phrases lacking any structure or order.
