The Acid House by Irvine Welsh

Nominated for a BAFTA award. From the author of Trainspotting, an adaptation of another of his best-selling works - a collection of short stories - The Acid House Trilogy The Acid House Trilogy is made up of three of Welsh's most powerful stories; The Granton Star Cause (starring Stephen McCole and Maurice Roeves), The Acid House (starring Ewen Bremner, Martin Clunes and Jemma Redgrave) and A Soft Touch (starring Kevin McKidd and Michelle Gomez). All three stories come from the rough, tough badlands of the schemes of North Edinburgh and take us into a dark but hilarious world of drugs, deviant sex and football hooliganism fired by Welsh's passion and fierce steaming rock and roll.
Irvine Welsh was born in 1958 in Leith, Edinburgh. Famous for his fiction, Welsh has also written a number of stage plays including You'll Have Had Your Hole. He is rightly celebrated for his adaptations: The Acid House trilogy which, along with Trainspotting, was released to great acclaim in the '90s. His works have come to be recognized as some of the best and most visceral depictions of the urban working class, and of the voices of his home city.
