«Trainspotting» is the contemporary fiction novel by Irvine Welsh, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (348 pages, in Spanish).
The novel follows a group of young Scots trapped in an Edinburgh marked by unemployment and misery, with heroin at the center of their routine. Irvine Welsh portrays their daily life with the raw language of the street, alternating black humor, fury and moments of lucidity, without idealizing addiction or its consequences.
It belongs to the Mark Renton series, where it holds the second position, and to Anagrama's Compactos collection (no. 212). The translation is by Federico Corriente Basús.
It is intended for readers of contemporary fiction and for those who know Danny Boyle's movie and want to read the original novel.
Irvine Welsh is a Scottish novelist, short story writer, screenwriter and filmmaker. His novels and short stories, which almost always take place in his native Scotland, are known for their gritty depictions of working-class life and its intricacies; particularly drug addiction, social alienation, lack of opportunity and boredom, amongst others.
