Life in the schemes is tough, and Renton and his friends scrape by in a haze of addiction, bad choices and uneasy friendships. Together, they navigate the gritty realities of Edinburgh’s underbelly in Trainspotting, Irvine Welsh’s darkly funny and unflinchingly raw novel that shocked readers and inspired Danny Boyle’s BAFTA-winning cult classic film.
This is the first-ever illustrated version of Welsh’s modern classic, featuring striking artwork by Nicole Rifkin and an introduction by John Sutherland. It’s a fresh way to experience the story that redefined British counterculture.
Experience the novel that defined a generation.
