A review by nigelbrown
Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh
5.0
It had the same effect on me as A Clockwork Orange, in that it took quite a few pages to understand what they were saying (and my wife’s Glaswegian). Once you’re on the same page however, (ahem) it becomes a wonderful rollercoaster of a tale that has all your emotions in a tangle.
I sometimes smile at “ laugh out loud” books, but never laugh… until now. Begbie’s trip down to London is hilarious.
I have the sequel the next in the series and it won’t be long before I make a start.
