The No. 1 BestsellerOne of the most important British films of the century'The best book ever written by man or woman-deserves to sell more copies than the Bible' Rebel Inc
Irvine Welsh was born and raised in Edinburgh. His first novel, Trainspotting, has sold over one million copies in the UK and was adapted into an era-defining film. He has written thirteen further novels, including the number one bestseller Dead Men's Trousers, four books of shorter fiction and numerous plays and screenplays. Crime and The Long Knives have been adapted into a television series starring Dougray Scott as Ray Lennox. Irvine Welsh currently lives between London, Edinburgh and Miami.
Abhorrently dark and raw to the core, Trainspotting is an insight
into one of life’s many ugly personalities — addiction and the
accompanying domino effect of grim inevitabilities… Irvine Welsh’s
novel will always be a cult classic.
*Culture Trip*
Welsh’s skill as a storyteller is undeniable, bringing both wit and
compassion to a grim subject matter. If you liked Danny Boyle’s
film adaptation, you’ll love the original.
