Details

Anyone fancy this Book Festival event?

Hear Irvine Welsh talk about his latest book and other things. I would imagine there will be a q&a session, opportunity to buy the book, perhaps get it signed.

In 1993, Irvine Welsh wrote Trainspotting – a novel that became a cultural moment, giving us the era-defining Renton, Spud, Sick Boy, and Begbie. With its long-anticipated sequel, Men in Love, the gang ‘come up’ again during the anarchic, decadent peak of late 80s/early 90s rave culture. But this time, they’re getting their kicks elsewhere. Edinburgh icon Welsh joins us to pose the timely question: is love really the drug all men crave?

Full price tickets are £15.50, Over 60 £14.50, Disabled £10.50 and other concessions available for unemployed, students etc. Link to tickets and more info - https://www.edbookfest.co.uk/the-festival/whats-on/irvine-welsh-the-second-summer-of-love

Will arrange optional food/drink/chat nearer the time.
