Irvine Welsh: Trainspotting

[jaybe]

I've just read Marabou Stork Nightmares. I loved Trainspotting, this is every bit as good. Deeper and even darker, it really helps with the understanding of mindless violence.

The accent reading problem some of you have with Irvine Welsh I can understand it took me a while with Trainspotting, but like someone already said you have to move your lips while you read it.

I've just read Skagboys, the prequel to Trainspotting. I just loved it!

Irvine Welsh is such a genius.

Great recommendations! One more for reading on my Kindle.
Starting with Trainspotting, that is.

I hope you enjoy it Peder. If you loved the film you will me really knocked out by the book. It really is worth strugling with accent, because he is such a great writer.
