Good quick read on Trainspotting hitting 30.
https://www.theguardian.com/book…
“The horrible thing is that Trainspotting was supposed to be a cautionary tale in some ways,” says Welsh of his 1993 novel. “But now, 30 years on, you can’t really see it that way any more.
“You can’t really say to the kids in the schemes [Scottish council estates]: don’t do drugs, they’ll wreck your life, you’ll never get a job or a house or buy nice things.”
- On reflection this might have been better off in the World is Fucked thread. oh well.BuddhaHat
