Descriere magazin:
In a dark and disturbing, often scabrously funny novel about the abuse of everything and everybody, the author of the international sensation Trainspotting introduces readers to Detective Sergeant Bruce Robertson of Edinburgh\'s finest, one of the most compellingly misanthropic characters in contemporary fiction. There are some sizable flies in the ointment, though: a missing wife and child, a nagging cocaine habit, some painful below-the-belt eczema, and a string of demanding extramarital affairs. The last thing Robertson needs is a messy, racially fraught murder, even if it means overtime--and the opportunity to clinch the promotion he craves. Then there\'s that nutritionally demanding (and psychologically acute) intestinal parasite in his gut. Yes, things are going badly for this utterly corrupt tribune of the law, but in an Irvine Welsh novel nothing is ever so bad that it can\'t get a whole lot worse. . . .In Bruce Robertson Welsh has created one of the most compellingly misanthropic characters in contemporary fiction, in a dark and disturbing and often scabrously funny novel about the abuse of everything and everybody. Welsh writes with a skill, wit and compassion that amounts to genius. He is the best thing that has happened to British writing in decades.-- Sunday Times [London] [O]ne of the most significant writers in Britain.
