Critics Review
Vigorous, stunningly funny…whimsical, warm, surreal, grotesque and brilliant
Vigorous, stunningly funny…whimsical, warm, surreal, grotesque and brilliant * Guardian *
Irvine Welsh is a terrific mimic… This collection of stories is a chorus of voices - rude, rough, discordant, filthy and often very, very funny. It’s a pleasure to watch him larking about with the language… Brilliant * The Times *
This new collection is a rambunctious return to the glory days of Trainspotting… Dazzlingly diverse… Sick and vigorous, written with Welsh’s inimitable in-yer-face energy * Sunday Telegraph *
This smutty, macabre collection exudes a compelling energy * Daily Mail *
Scary, erotic and extremely funny * Literary Review *
