Reviews
Praise for Trainspotting: The best book ever written by man or woman... Deserves to sell more copies than the bible * Rebel Inc *
Praise for Filth: A snarling epic...ugly, devastatingly funny, unremittingly nasty and pulls no punches... Don't dare miss it * Scotsman *
Praise for Marabou Stork Nightmares: Mind-bendingly good * GQ *
Praise for Ecstasy: Spiky, trashy and brutal... Brilliant, hilarious and infused with a kind of punkish morality * Sunday Express *
