Irvine Welsh 
Ecstasy [EPUB ebook] 

From the celebrated author of the bestselling cult classic Trainspotting, a new work of fiction that triumphantly puts the E back in Eros.

With three delightful tales of love and its ups and downs, the ever-surprising Irvine Welsh virtually invents a new genre of fiction: the chemical romance .
In ‘Lorraine Goes to Livingston, ‘ a bestselling authoress of Regency romances, paralyzed and bedridden, plans her revenge on gambling, whoring husband with the aid of her nurse Lorraine. In ‘Fortune’s Always Hiding, ‘ flawed beauty Samantha Worthington enlists a smitten young soccer thug to find the man who marketed the drug that crippled her from birth—in order to give his a taste of his own disastrous medicine. In the upbeat final tale ‘The Undefeated, ‘ we experience the transfiguring passion of the miserably married young yuppie Heather and the raver Lloyd from Leith—a grand affair played out to a house music beat.
As these fools for love pursue it in all the wrong places,
Ecstasy is guaranteed to set pulses racing and hearts aflutter.
