Produktbeschreibung

The characters in this extraordinary book are often - on the surface - depraved, vicious, cowardly and manipulative, but their essential humanity is never undermined. God turns Boab Coyle into a house-fly; The Acid House is a bizarre, disturbing and hilarious collection from one of the most uncompromising and original writers around.

Rezensionen

Every bit as filthy, funny and provocative as the novel that proceeded it [Trainspotting]... Welsh's first collection of short stories is a riot of colourful characters, eye-watering vernacular and imaginative story-telling. This is one of Britain's best writers in his swaggering pomp, and the result is brilliantly addictive. Esquire
