Narrative As Books Reheated Cabbage

Hilarious, shocking and hugely entertaining, Reheated Cabbage has all the classic Irvine Welsh ingredients.

In these pages you can enjoy Christmas dinner with Begbie, and see how warmly Franco greets his sister's boyfriend and the news of their engagement. You will discover, in 'The Rosewell Incident', how aliens addicted to Embassy Regal have Midlothian under surveillance, and plan to install the local casuals as the new governors of Planet Earth. You will not be surprised to read that a televised Hibs vs. Hearts game might matter more to one character than the life of his wife, or that two guys fighting over a beautiful girl might agree -- on reflection, and after a few pills and many pints of lager -- that their friendship is actually more important. And you will be delighted to welcome back 'Juice' Terry Lawson, and to watch what happens when he meets his old nemesis, retired schoolmaster Albert Black, under the strobe-lights of a Miami Beach nightclub.

Notice Of Books Reheated Cabbage

I really like this writer a lot. He has the right mixture of out and out grossness and also is deceptively deep in his subject matter/plots. I will go out of my way to read what he writes in the future.

Remember that scene in the movie "Trainspotting" where the main character is swimming through the toilet in the most disgusting public bathroom in Scotland? That's the place Welsh consistently takes the reader in this collection of stories. He's got guts I'll give him that, but... "N ah suppose thit what it aw boils doon tae is thit thaire's jist some c--ts ye cannae take tae. Ye fuckin try, but ye ken deep doon thit yir nivir gaunny see eye tae eye, n that's that."(51)That about sums up my

I know his work and Ive seen him speak, so Im not sure why I never picked up an Irvine Welsh book not until now. Reheated Cabbage seems like a good place to start. And you know what? I fuckin loved it! Stories that twist in bizarre ways complete with booze, drugs, shags, 90s club music, Scottish speak, and the c word like in every other sentence. Every story here is a winner, and I laughed my arse off. My faves: A Fault on the Line, The Rosewell Incident, The State of the Party, and I Am Miami.

26/100 (2018 Reading Challenge)I am a sucker for my favourite authors & plus even attempted unbiased interviews have bias creeping through. This was a reread, the highlights are definitely the Begbie story & the Juice Terry one. I tend to lean towards the returning characters. Yet the rest are still enjoyable classic IW. If youre a big fan you cant go wrong here.

This book was great! I've become a huge fan of Welsh and I really enjoyed these new/old stories involving various characters in his universe. The novella at the end, I am Miami, is like a sequel to both Porno and Glue. Juice Terry is one of Welsh's best characters and I found this new adventure of his to be very entertaining!

A hodgepodge of B-sides from a writer used to walking the knife's edge of brilliance and blunder. Here he fails spectacularly. It's all mere filler, or worse, like some crude bootleg of an artist justiably renowned for genius. Poor pacing, casual and gratuitous sex, drugs and violence; a flimsy effort. The worst offenders are yawn-inducing gutter drips that just don't land... Indeed, Welsh ruefully calls this cash grab "Reheated Cabbage". Aye, we were warned...

As a huge fan of Irvine Welsh, I jumped at the opportunity to snag this collection of short stories when I saw it the local thrift store for a few bucks. I didn't expect it to rival any of his best works, but figured I can never have too many Welsh books in my library. I was right, these stories maybe aren't his best, but it's classic Welsh, through and through. There's the humorous, colloquial banter in Scots dialect (which by now I am fully versed in), there's the excess of booze and drugs and
