It's good to be brought back to Welsh's original hellfireThe stories combine sly humour with the tang of lived experience. It makes for a terrific collection,showcasing a writer who...has blossomed into one of the most distinctive,and distinguished,observers of British lifeA total hoot to read. The first thing that strikes you about much of the material here is the amazing energy of Welsh's writingWelsh's work remains at once moving,repellent and worryingly funnyFull of fun,frenzy and filth
