Filth, by Irvine Welsh

FilthFilth by Irvine Welsh

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


A fairly entertaining yarn -- if you like Welsh's style -- but it's missing the light relief that characters like Renton and Sick Boy brought to Trainspotting and Porno. I found it just a little too unrelentingly grim and lacking in any real redemption (though the "pink cigarette"-esque ending was unexpected).
