“Bulgakov’s love for Kiev burns in every chapter of The White Guard.” —The Guardian
“Infused with a passion for the old city and for its people that catches the reader up in its sweeping intensity.” —The New York Times Book Review
“A portrait of a population under siege.... Bulgakov’s novel evokes the suffering of [the Russian Civil War] and the still greater horrors that lay ahead.” —The Wall Street Journal
“A writer of fantastic genius.” —The Sunday Times
Mikhail Bulgakov’s 'The White Guard', first published in 1925, is a gripping historical novel set during the Russian Civil War. It follows the Turbin family—Aleksei, a devoted White Army officer; his younger brother Nikolka, eager to prove himself; and their sister Elena—as they navigate the chaos of Kiev after the fall of the Russian Empire.
As political factions shift and violence erupts, the Turbins struggle with loyalty, survival, and the collapse of their world. Through their personal and ideological crises, the novel explores themes of war, honor, and disillusionment.
Based partly on Bulgakov’s own experiences, 'The White Guard' offers a deeply human perspective on historical upheaval. Though censored in Soviet Russia, it remains a poignant examination of war’s impact on individuals, later inspiring Bulgakov’s famous play 'The Days of the Turbins'.

Mikhail Bulgakov was born in Kyiv, Russian Empire (today part of modern Ukraine) on 3/15 May 1891. He studied and briefly practised medicine and, after indigent wanderings through revolutionary Russia and the Caucasus, he settled in Moscow in 1921. His sympathetic portrayal of White characters in his stories, in the plays The Days of the Turbins (The White Guard), which enjoyed great success at the Moscow Art Theatre in 1926, and Flight (1927), and his satirical treatment of the officials of the New Economic Plan, led to growing criticism, which became violent after the play, The Purple Island. His later works treat the subject of the artist and the tyrant under the guise of historical characters, with plays such as Molière, staged in 1936, Don Quixote, staged in 1940, and Pushkin, staged in 1943. He also wrote a brilliant biography, highly original in form, of his literary hero, Molière, but The Master and Margarita, a fantasy novel about the devil and his henchmen set in modern Moscow, is generally considered his masterpiece. Fame, at home and abroad, was not to come until a quarter of a century after his death in Moscow in 1940.
