IRVINE WELSH
Irvine Welsh is the author of eleven novels and four books of shorter fiction. Trainspotting (1993), his first novel, was a phenomenal bestseller and has since become a cult classic of the 1990s, described by the Sunday Times as ‘The voice of punk, grown up, grown wiser and grown eloquent’. The film of the novel was directed by Danny Boyle and released in 1996, and has been ranked tenth by the British Film Institute in its Top 100 British films of all time. T2 Trainspotting, based on the novel Porno (2002), is a sequel to Trainspotting and reunites the original cast. Welsh currently lives in Chicago.
