"It's good to be brought back to Welsh's original hellfire" Observer "The stories combine sly humour with the tang of lived experience. It makes for a terrific collection, showcasing a writer who...has blossomed into one of the most distinctive, and distinguished, observers of British life" Sunday Telegraph "A total hoot to read. The first thing that strikes you about much of the material here is the amazing energy of Welsh's writing" Independent on Sunday "Welsh's work remains at once moving, repellent and worryingly funny" TLS "Full of fun, frenzy and filth" -- Sebastian Shakespeare Tatler
