Trainspotting (novel)
''Trainspotting'' is the first novel by Scottish writer Irvine Welsh, first published in 1993. It is written in either Scots, Scottish English or British English, revolving around various residents of Leith, Edinburgh, who either use heroin, are friends of the core group of heroin users, or engage in destructive activities that are effectively addictions. The novel is set in the late 1980s and has been described by ''The Sunday Times'' as "the voice of punk, grown up, grown wiser and grown eloquent".
