The Master and Margarita

I am a few chapters into this strange book, and to be honest, I am quite lost. But, I do have a few questions or statements to make. I am not sure whether the Stranger/Professor is trying to save Homeless and Berlioz. He makes the statement that Jesus did exist, and he tells them the story of how he was arrested and tried and then sentenced to death. But, his way of telling this is far from what the Gospels write. And even after the Stranger is finished with his tale, Homeless calls him out for not having the facts straight. So, I do not know what the Stranger is trying to accomplish in the beginning of this book. Is he a good man or a bad man trying to lead others astray? What is his purpose? He seems to just jump from thought to thought without giving comfort to others.



I commented on Briana's!
