About this ebook
The Trainspotting crew—Renton, Sick Boy, Spud, and Begbie—are back, as they search for love, self, and meaning in this brilliantly comic new novel by Irvine Welsh.
Choose life. Choose love? The Trainspotting crew fall for rave and romance in Irvine Welsh’s blazing new novel.
It is the late 1980s, the closing years of an era. A brand-new one is starting. For the Trainspotting crew, this new door is opening—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, 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?
