[Mark Renton 02] • Trainspotting

Brace yourself, America, for Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting —the novel and the film that became the cult sensations of Britain.

Trainspotting is the hilarious, appalling, riveting, bestselling, and altogether masterful first novel that launched the spectacular career of Irvine Welsh. It is an authentic, unrelenting, and strangely exhilarating group portrait of blasted lives in Edinburgh—as unforgettable a clutch of junkies, rude boys, and nutters as readers will ever encounter.
