The first collection of stories by Irvine Welsh since the legendary “Acid House”! A collection in which the “king of British counterculture” again demonstrates his signature, black and evil humor... A group of cheerful young people are stuck in the desert, where one of the tourists was bitten by a snake, and, moreover, in an intimate place... We’ll have to use folk remedies! A young socialite has lost her dog - and has every reason to suspect that the poor animal ended its life... in a Korean chef's cauldron! A cynical, hardened owner of a tavern in the Canaries enters into single combat with mysterious bandits - in full and holy confidence that they have stolen from him what is dearest to him than anything in the world! These are only the most innocent places in Welsh's new stories. Stories that are scandalous, poisonous, politically incorrect – and devilishly funny! The book was shared by: ~Girl~Bitch~
