trainspotting by Irvine Welsh

and

hippies by Peter Jedick

Trainspotting is already on my to-read list.
I've added Hippies.

Thanks, Mike.

Trainspotting is great, and my dear Ewan is in the movie. Life is rad.

may I ask what the two books in question are about?

Well there's a movie on Trainspotting. It's about drugs. Haven't seen it in awhile, but some pretty strange stuff happened.

The Manifesto and
Das Capital by Karl Marx
