81. Irvine Welsh - An Interview By Alexander Laurence Born and formed in 1961, Scottish author irvine welsh is now acknowledged as the distinct voice of British youth culture. Writing http://www.freewilliamsburg.com/july_2001/interviews.html

Born and formed in 1961, Scottish author Irvine Welsh is now acknowledged as the distinct voice of British youth culture. Writing in a crude, phonetic dialect about drugs, sex, violence, and soccer, Welsh captured the lazy imagination of a generation not easily seduced by books. After debuting in March 1994 with The Acid House , a hilarious, soulful, and shocking short-story collection, Welsh became a full-fledged media phenomenon with the publication of his first novel Trainspotting , published in August of the same year. The book, by turns depressing and exhilarating gave mordant insight into the Edinburgh housing projects where the writer grew up. As well as earning Welsh heady comparisons to the likes of Celine, the book was shortlisted for Britain's prestigious Booker Prize, stayed on bestseller lists for over two years, and in 1995 was adapted for the stage. The hyperkinetic hit movie version of Trainspotting (1996), coming on the heels of Welsh's ambitious, hallucinatory second novel

Deutscher Taschenbuch Verlag Welsh, Irvine Drecksau Roman ISBN 3-423- Euro 11,00 [D] 11,40 [A] sFr 19,10 Autorenportrait Irvine Welsh , geboren 1958, lebt in Amsterdam, London und Schottland. Sein Debütroman ›Trainspotting‹ (1993, dt. 1996) wurde für den Booker Prize nominie ... Drecksau Für Sergeant Bruce Robertson gibt es Schöneres zu tun, als zu arbeiten: nette Beschäftigungen auf der Herrentoilette, kleine Intrigen gegen Kolleginnen oder auch ein Kurztrip nach Amsterdam, ins Drogen- und Sexparadies. Ärgerlich, daß er dann doch noch einen Mord aufklären soll, aber vielleicht springt ja für ihn was dabei raus. Immer tiefer sinkt Robertson in die Abgründe menschlichen Seins. Widerstand gegen das Böse kommt von unerwarteter Seite: Der Bandwurm, der den Polizisten schon seit längerem quält, kommentiert ungefragt die Schweinereien seines Wirts. Die Dinge stehen schlecht für die »Drecksau«, aber in einem Roman von Irvine Welsh ist es nie so schlimm, daß es nicht noch schlimmer kommen könnte. - Kurz nach Erscheinen der englischen Ausgabe versuchte die britische Polizei, eine einstweilige Verfügung gegen ›Drecksau‹ zu erwirken, weil sie sich durch den Roman beleidigt fühlte. Doch auch diese Aktion konnte nicht verhindern, daß der Roman lange auf Platz 1 der britischen Bestsellerliste stand. Weitere Titel von Irvine Welsh Bei dtv sind erschienen: Welsh, Irvine

92. 'The Irvine Welsh Omnibus' By Irvine Welsh - Between The Lines What can you say about irvine welsh the Godfather of chemical fiction who has not only revolutionised writing as we know it but also put the fizz back into http://www.thei.aust.com/books97/btlrvwelsh.html

What can you say about Irvine Welsh - the Godfather of chemical fiction who has not only revolutionised writing as we know it but also put the fizz back into literary novella prose - that hasn't already been said? That doesn't bow and scrape to the crude, lewd and twisted genius harpooning his quill through the counter cultural bowels of street life, the lower class rungs and finally into the abdomen of drug chutzpah itself? There are very few prominent literary hacks either carving their living out between the hip pages of music magazines or higher up the scale on well respected and intellectual parchments who have found reason to level complaint against Welsh. We've all seemingly crouched at his feet and looked up in infinite wonder at the icon of modern dialectic rhetoric. Sure, it may have taken an abundance of patience to interpret the dense Scottish language that sprung mischievously off his pages and to come to terms with the use of his favourite word c....t, but hell, he invented the word that is often used to describe all current trends and people that bow to them; Trainspotters. When Ewan McGregor and co slid through the visual adaptation of Welsh's debut novel Trainspotting , a whole generation tapped their feet to the narcotic soundtrack and to the adventures of junkies Renton, Begbie, Diane, Sick Boy and Spud haemorrhaging through Edinburgh in the early '80s with - as Iggy Pop would say - an overabundant lust for life. It made the film's director Danny Boyle bucketloads of dosh and fame to boot.
