Acid Plaid: New Scottish Writing

Acid Plaid: New Scottish Writing

William Boyd
0/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
The phenomenal success of Trainspotting made Edinburgh the hottest literary spot on the map. A major feature in the New York Times Magazine announced, "From the margins of Scottish society comes a new, beer-soaked, drug-filled, profanity-laced, violently funny literature", and Kirkus writes, "The Scottish beats are already strong contenders for world-class literary status". They have infused their writing with a raw, youthful energy and daring that has attracted an audience in the hundreds of thousands. With what British Esquire calls "an impressive array of Scottish writers", Acid Plaid: New Scottish Writing provides a unique overview of the scene that has revolutionized late-twentieth-century literature; it includes stories by Irvine Welsh, Alan Warner, Janice Galloway, Duncan McLean, William Boyd, and a host of explosively talented writers whose work hits U.S. shores for the first time in here.
