<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The acclaimed author of the cult classic "Trainspotting" presents his newest and most audacious novel--a brilliant (and literal) head trip that introduces Roy Strang, whose hallucinatory quest to eradicate the evil marabou stork keeps being interrupted by the grisly memories that brought him to this dysfunctional state. "A fantastic trip".--Madison Smartt Bell, "Spin".<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The acclaimed author of the cult classics <em>Trainspotting</em> and <em>The Acid House</em>, Irvine Welsh has been hailed as the best thing that has happened to British writing in a decade (London <em>Sunday Times</em>). This audacious novel is a brilliant (and literal) head trip of a book that brings us into the wildly active, albeit coma-beset, mind of Roy Strang, whose hallucinatory quest to eradicate the evil predator/scavenger marabou stork keeps being interrupted by grisly memories of the social and family dysfunction that brought him to this state. It is the sort of lethally funny cocktail of pathos, violence, and outrageous hilarity that only Irvine Welsh can pull off.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>In a brief time, [Irvine Welsh] has emerged as a writer of scope, imagination, and a savage brand of compassion. Long may he rave.--John Purim "Boston Phoenix"<br><br>Extremely funny...as clever as Alasdair Gray, as elegant as Jeff Torrington, as passionate as James Kelman, Welsh has got it all.--Tibor Fischer, author of The Thought Gang and Under the Frog<br>
