Irvine Welsh

Opis

Bizarre, disturbing and hilarious writing from one of the literary world s most uncompromising and original stars.
Two professors of philosophy turn pugilists; Leith removal men become the objects of desire for Hollywood goddesses; God turns Boab Coyle into a house-fly; and in the novella, A Smart Cunt, the drug-addled young hero spins off on a collision course with his past."

Recenzje

Every bit as filthy, funny and provocative as the novel that proceeded it [Trainspotting]... Welsh's first collection of short stories is a riot of colourful characters, eye-watering vernacular and imaginative story-telling. This is one of Britain's best writers in his swaggering pomp, and the result is brilliantly addictive. Esquire
