Description
The Trainspotting crew return in this dynamic, pulsating sequel to Irvine Welsh's classic novel, as late-80s rave culture sweeps Edinburgh and the boys go looking for love.
Choose life. Choose love? The Trainspotting crew fall for rave and romance in Irvine Welsh’s blazing new novel.
‘Propulsive, hilarious and bittersweet in equal measure’ GQ
It is the late 1980s, the closing years of Thatcher’s Britain. For the Trainspotting crew, a new era is about to begin – a time for hope, for love, for raving.
Leaving heroin behind and separated after a drug deal gone wrong, Renton, Sick Boy, Spud and Begbie each want to feel alive. They fill their days with sex and romance and trying to get ahead; they follow the call of the dance floor, with its promise of joy and redemption.
Sick Boy starts an intense relationship with Amanda, his ‘princess’ – rich, connected, everything that he is not. When the pair set a date for their wedding, Sick Boy sees a chance for his generation to take control at last.
But as the 1990s dawn, will finding love be the answer to the group’s dreams or just another doomed quest?
