Porno
Porno | Irvine Welsh
14 posts | 34 read | 16 to read
Ten years on from Trainspotting, Simon 'Sick Boy' Williamson is back in Edinburgh after a long spell in London. Having failed spectacularly as a hustler, pimp, husband, father and businessman, Sick Boy taps into an opportunity, which to him represents one last throw of the dice. However, to realise his dream of directing and producing a pornographic movie, Sick Boy must team up with old pal and fellow exile Mark Renton and a motley crew that includes the city's favourite ex-aerated-water-salesman, 'Juice' Terry Lawson. In the world of Porno, however, nothing is straightforward, as Sick Boy and Renton find out that they have unresolved issues to address, concerning the increasingly unhinged Frank Begbie, the troubled, drug-addled Spud, but, most of all, with each other.

I ordered the white version with skeleton on it but ebay sent me this, I was like 🙀

The sequel to Trainspotting.
The book describes the characters ten years after the events of the earlier book, as their paths cross again, this time with the pornography business as the backdrop rather than heroin use.

With the movie they changed that plot, I liked it BUT it lacked the humour which made the first one so charming and hilarious. 😏

T2 Trainspotting (Fti) | Irvine Welsh
post image

Trainspotting was a brilliant film from the nineties that is one which helped turn me into such a movie addict. 21 years later, the sequel doesn't disappoint in the slightest.

Now maybe it's time to actually read the novels that they were based on 🤔

I think my first mission as BookFairie was rather successful! I planted my books in front on the Kölner Dom - one of Germany's biggest cathedrals (quite blasphemous, I know!) The rush's still there, I think might be hooked! And apparently the good people of @ bookfairiesworldwide like it, too!

Just went to see a double feature: Trainspotting and T2, and i do have to confess that i maybe had too high hopes, but it could have been a wee bit deeper, couldn't it? It wasn't BAD, but maybe Danny Boyle should've closer stuck to the original. And he did get a bit flashy showin off bonnie Edinbrugh, aye?!
