First love, the last anointing. Macouen I.

In his early stories, the author demonstrates a wide range of stylistic experiments. “It was a kind of laboratory for me,” he said in an interview, “a way to try out various registers, to find yourself as a writer.” In the McUan laboratory, the great-grandson of the outstanding mathematician of the 19th century repeats the great-grandfather's experiments in the field of stereometry of human bodies. Teenagers arrange the male triathlon “Smoking - Drinking - Women”, and the victim of difficult childhood will give an interview without getting out of the closet. Three stories from this collection were filmed. The title, “stereometry”, and “butterflies” - twice.

This is now Ian Mcueen to the whole world as a classic of English literature. But once he, like everyone else, was only a newcomer in the literary world. “First Love, the Last Anointing” is the first of the collection of stories he published. This book is for everyone who is interested in how Mcueen began his own way, it is written with the audacity of the young man and the talent of a real genius.
