'The Adventures of Chichikov' is an entertaining story by the famous Russian writer, playwright and theater figure Mikhail Afanasyevich Bulgakov (1891–1940). Pavel Ivanovich Chichikov is a clever fellow. Arriving in Moscow, he moves into a hostel, easily gets a job, and by cunning manages to get himself additional food rations. But his entrepreneurial spirit does not end there - he quickly gets rich and decides to open his own business. Other famous works by Mikhail Bulgakov are 'The Cup of Life', 'Chanson d'Eté', 'The Steel Windpipe', 'The Days of the Turbins', 'Zoyka's Apartment', 'Lord Curzon's Benefit Performance', 'Under a Glass Sky', 'Forty Forties', 'Red Stone Moscow', 'The Cabal of the Holy One'. Many of Mikhail Bulgakov's works were banned by Soviet censorship, and this very fact characterizes him as a freethinker person. Readers admire his talent all over the world, his works have been translated into different languages and films have been made based on many of them.
