Begun in 1920 while Bulgakov was employed in a hospital in the remote Caucasian outpost of Vladikavkaz, and continued when he started working for a government literary department in Moscow, Notes on a Cuff is a series of journalistic sketches which show the young doctor trying to embark on a literary career among the chaos of war, disease, politics and bureaucracy. Stylistically brilliant and brimming with humour and literary allusion, Notes on a Cuff is presented here in a new translation, along with a collection of other short pieces by Bulgakov, many of them ? such as ?The Cockroach? and ?A Dissolute Man? ? published for the first time in the English language. Contains: ?Notes on a Cuff?, ?The Fire of the Khans?, ?The Crimson Island?, ?A Week of Enlightenment?, ?The Unusual Adventures of a Doctor?, ?Psalm?, ?Moonshine Lake?, ?Makar Devushkin?s Story?, ?A Scurvy Character?, ?The Murderer?, ?The Cockroach?, ?A Dissolute Man?.
