We have all of the Irvine Welsh books in our house -my eldest son is a big fan and i always buy him the latest one for Xmas or birthday. They are in Italian though -don't know how you translate Scottish to Italian, they must have chosen a dialect - I have never read any of them -not quite my genre.:rolleyes
Now i come to think of it I don't think I've ever watched Trainspotting all the way through either-seen it a bit at a time as my boys have the DVD.
