EP176: Irvine Welsh

Today’s very special episode of Electronically Yours features one of Scotland’s most celebrated novelists, Irvine Welsh.   His 1993 novel Trainspotting was made into a hugely popular film (it even featured Heaven 17’s Temptation). He has also written many plays and screenplays, and directed several short films. The characters in his novels often inhabit an integrated fictional universe, so each work builds upon previous narratives. Ladies and gentlemen, this pen is mightier than the sword, meet Irvine Welsh... If you can, please support the Electronically Yours podcast via my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/electronicallyours
