Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh (Paperback, 2004)
ISBN: 0099465892
Publisher: Vintage Books
Irvine Welsh's controversial first novel, set on the heroin-addicted fringe of working-class youth in Edinburgh, is yet another exploration of the dark side of Scottishness. The main character, Mark Renton, is at the center of a clique of nihilistic slacker junkies with no hopes and no possibilities, and only "mind-numbing and spirit-crushing" alternatives in the straight world they despise. An authentic, unrelenting, and strangely exhilarating episodic portrait of young addicts in Edinburgh. Rents, Sick Boy, Mother Superior, Swanney, Spuds, and Seeker are as unforgettable a clutch of junkies, rude boys, and psychos as are ever likely to be found in fiction. 344 pages
