Don Ivan

Alan Cherchesov - Prose, philologist, author of novels & quot, wreath on the grave of the wind & quot ,, & quot, Villa Bel-Letter & quot,, in different years of the prize short list & quot, Russian Booker & QUOT ,.
New Roman & Quot, Don Ivan & Quot - Love book written by the language of the XXI century. Two places of action - Moscow and Seville - the two main lines - the story of Don Juan and the life of the writer, who draws it, is intertwined, the border between their worlds is erased, and now the author is talking to the hero, and the hero is fighting with his own Double.
Love to death? Love after death? This is already outdated. Love instead of death! Only it is necessary to love.
Cherchesov does not play literature - he is experiencing it seriously. Even irony, permanent verbal duels, the exchange of punctures - all this sounds like a memory, a magical formula ... Having tried this thick, mixed on the old good recipes cocktail, it is already difficult to tear away from it.
