«Diablerie, ou, comment des jumeaux causèrent la perte d'un secrétaire» is the satirical short story by Mikhail Bulgakov, in paperback, published by Mille et une nuits.
The story follows Korotkov, a Soviet office worker who, after being dismissed, tries to get his job back in an administration ruled by absurdity; the bureaucratic apparatus turns into a diabolical force for him, making his errands a nightmare.
The original text appeared in 1925. This French edition has 79 pages; the translation is by Wladimir Berelowitch.
For readers of classic fiction and satire, particularly those interested in twentieth-century Russian literature and in Bulgakov's work.
