The Edinburgh Companion to Irvine Welsh Quotes

“The idea of the split self has been an enduringly influential trope in the academic analysis of Scottish literature as a distinct artistic field. The division of the self, and the resulting schism of personal morality, have frequently been upheld as characteristically Scottish - a literary representation of the nation's long-divided political loyalties and experiences.”
― Alice Ferrebe, The Edinburgh Companion to Irvine Welsh
