All three stories come from the rough, tough badlands of the schemes of North Edinburgh and take us into a dark but hilarious world of drugs, deviant sex and football hooliganism fired by Welsh's passion and fierce steaming rock and roll.

Author Information

Irvine Welsh was born in 1958 in Leith, Edinburgh. Famous for his fiction, Welsh has also written a number of stage plays including You'll Have Had Your Hole. He is rightly celebrated for his adaptations: The Acid House trilogy which, along with Trainspotting, was released to great acclaim in the '90s. His works have come to be recognized as some of the best and most visceral depictions of the urban working class, and of the voices of his home city.
