The Master and Margarita - Mikhail Bulgakov
Well, how to start a comment on this book?
Мастер и Маргарита is visionary, dreamlike, with a pronounced taste for the theatrical. The story spreads over several layers and encloses more stories, that entangle in unexpected ways.
It’s also a merciless and irreverent criticism of Russian society, from vain literary circles to the underground fights for an apartment, from the ubiquitous but useless police to the spy responsible for monitoring foreigners. The Devil himself takes part in messing everything up…
Thanks to Martina (my consultant for Russian literature 
) that recommended it to me!
