Altın Buzağı

The balance between comedy and commentary feels so seamless. I'm curious whether they saw their satire as more important than the laughs or vice versa.

The satire highlights corruption and moral decay, but I wondered if the humor distracts from how serious these issues still feel today.

The backdrop feels so vivid and specific—was it based on real events or a fictionalized version of the era? I’d love to know how the authors envisioned this world.
