The Master and Margarita
From the album “Illustrations by Elena Baitman”
“I challenge you to a duel!” the cat roared, flying over the heads on the swaying chandelier, and there again in his paws was a Browning, while he had tucked the primus among the branches of the chandelier. Aiming, the cat, swinging like a pendulum over the heads of those present, opened fire on them.
