Interview with james kelman, Irvine Welsh and Duncan McLean. From the Boston Phoenix.

Extractions: May 15 - 22, 1 9 9 7 "They wanted me to tour America last year when Trainspotting came out, but I couldn't be bothered," says Irvine Welsh wearily, contemplating the portobello-mushroom sandwich before him. "I couldn't be bothered with this one either. I'm kind of sick of it, but . . . " But Welsh is here nonetheless, in Boston, at the Audubon Circle restaurant on Beacon Street touring. Along with fellow Scottish authors James Kelman and Duncan McLean, Welsh makes up one-third of the so-called "Great Scots" trio visiting five cities in the US at the behest of their publisher, W.W. Norton. Welsh's apathy, though, is infinitely preferable to what I'd been getting minutes earlier. Ordering from the menu, I'd noticed that Welsh was looking at me not just looking at me, but looking at me. Was he thinking about hitting me? Irvine Welsh has a shaven head, a crinkly line of a mouth, and a pair of small, watery eyes that seem to peer out of the center of a bulbous, intensely serious face. He looks hard.

Extractions: var cm_role = "live" var cm_host = "tripod.lycos.com" var cm_taxid = "/memberembedded" James Kelman was born 9 June 1946 in Glasgow. He left school at 15, briefly emigrated to the US with his family, then worked in a variety of jobs in England, before returning to Scotland in 1972, where he attended a writing group at Glasgow University which brought him into contact with Alasdair Gray and Tom Leonard . His first publication was in America: "An Old Pub Near The Angel" (1973). Kelman's reputation was built slowly and steadily, his books establishing him as the foremost writer in the Scottish vernacular of working class life. His short stories are often reminiscent of early Joyce; Kelman acknowledges the influence of Chekhov. The Booker-Prize winning "How Late It Was, How Late" (1994) brought Kelman to a wider and less understanding audience. The book fulfilled the standard Booker prerequisite of spurious controversy; in this case about Kelman's choice, established over many years, of transcribing onto paper a form of speech whose vocabulary and music is immediately familiar to all Scots. Such controversies, which in other countries might be termed racist, are still possible in Britain. Kelman, incidentally, after winning the Booker, magnanimously withdrew his book from several other shortlists, saying that one prize was enough. AC An Old Pub Near the Angel (1973); with Tom Leonard and Alex Hamilton: Three Glasgow Writers (1975); Short Tales from the Nightshift (1978); Not Not While the Giro (1983); The Busconductor Hines (1984); A Chancer (1985); with Agnes Owens and Alasdsir Gray: Lean Tales (1985); Greyhound for Breakfast (1987); A Disaffection (1989); The Burn (1991); Hardie and Baird and Other Plays (1991); Some Recent Attacks (1992); How Late It Was, How Late (1994).

Extractions: How to subscribe to Booklist Magazine Kelman, James. The Good Times. June 1999. 256p. Doubleday/Anchor, paper, $12.95 (0-385-49580-3). Kelman won the Booker Prize (1994) for How Late It Was, How Late ; in 1997 a collection of his short stories, Busted Scotch , was published. This is his first new work since How Late , and though he takes fewer chances here (but, then, how could he be any more challenging?), his language sings as before, and he shows a range with his characterizations. The language is not always that of lower-class ordinary men; a few of the voices in this collection of 20 first-person narrative stories belong to middle-class ordinary men, which means that some of the stories contain paragraphs that aren't peppered with amazing usages of the f- word or such exotic terms as couldnay, telt, merr te , and so on. The stories are rich with layered meanings, and the juxtaposition of those exotic words produces a music in the reader's head. And Kelman's realm is the mind; he thinks he's on to us, and as one character aptly explains, "It was incredible to think everybody might be like this. An entire world full of people going about having these thoughts. Billion of heads exploding." What's going on in the mind and between men and women seem to be Kelman's favorite themes. "Oh My Darling" joins those concerns in a marvelous two-step that quickens both mind and heart with its truths. When she breaks him down with a look and he must will self-control, it's a thunderous moment, a D. H. Lawrence moment. But Kelman is mainly full of his own nice turns; his signature is writ large.
