About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Rebecca Navarro, best-selling authoress of Regency romances, suffers a paralysing stroke. Assisted by her nurse, Rebecca plans her revenge on her unfaithful husband. But will Freddy Royle, hospital trustee, celebrity and necrophiliac, thwart those plans?

Dave Thornton, soccer thug, has lost his heart to flawed beauty Samantha Worthington. Together they go in search of the man who marketed the drug that crippled her - in order to cripple him.

Lloyd from Leith has a transfiguring passion for the unhappily married Heather. Together they explore the true nature of house music and chemical romance. Will their ardour fizzle and die in the grim backstreets of Edinburgh, or will it ignite and blaze like a thousand suns?

Another excellent collection of short stories from the author. He does not disappoint with his usual disturbing look at society (from a point of view lol)
Tam Dean Burn provides an excellent performance (again !!) and brings the author’s books to life.
Not for those of a weak disposition….but GGTTH

Weird, wacky and wonderful !!

Some strange stories but Irvine Welsh is always great. Sick and humorous at the same time. Never fails to make me laugh.
