British novelist and Booker Prize winner known for psychologically intense, morally complex fiction including Atonement, Saturday, and Amsterdam. Often called 'Ian Macabre' for his early unsettling short stories, McEwan has evolved into one of Britain's preeminent literary novelists.

Ian McEwan the Gemini

Gemini is curiosity with a mouth on it. A mutable air sign ruled by Mercury, Gemini runs on information, conversation, and the pleasure of connecting two ideas nobody had thought to put together. Boredom is the real enemy here, not difficulty, not conflict, just the flat grey of nothing new to think about.
