What begins as a miracle of science soon turns into a nightmare... After a plague wipes out all of Russia`s chickens, eyes fall on zoologist Periskov and his strange discovery that promises to revive their population. But quickly, the state`s attempt to control nature spirals rapidly out of control, and soon all of Moscow is under siege by creatures they hadn`t bargained for.
The Fatal Eggs is Mikhail Bulgakov`s savage, darkly comic tale of progress gone wrong. Blending satire with science fiction, it captures the dangers of unchecked power – and the absurdity of believing that catastrophe can be neatly managed. BRIEF ENCOUNTERS: classic novellas and captivating stories, to be read in a single sitting or savoured over days
