Ecstasy by Irvine Welsh
From the celebrated author of the bestselling cult classic Trainspotting, a new work of fiction that triumphantly puts the E back in Eros.
"Welsh's world is piky, trashy, and brutalIt is also brilliant, hilarious, and infused with a kind of punkish morality...outrageously funny." -- Sunday Express
"Welsh writes with a skill, wit and compassion that amounts to genius. He is the best thing that has happened to British writing in decades." -- Sunday Times [London]
"Ecstasy is spiced with horror, passion and necrophilia. These flavors help make the tales more tempting, but it is Irvine Welsh's infectious Scottish humor, balanced wry observation with a cavalier canniness, which keeps the reader turning the pages...unforgettably original!" -- The Literary Review
"Reading Irvine Welsh is like watching Tarantino—exciting, urgent, thrilling, repulsive." -- The Spectator
"[O]ne of the most significant writers in Britain. He writes with style, imagination, wit, and force, and in a voice which those alienated by much current fiction clearly want to hear." -- Times Literary Supplement
