  1. 1. Porno by Irvine Welsh

    A decade after their turbulent youth, a group of dysfunctional friends from Edinburgh are drawn back together when one of them resurfaces after absconding with the group’s money; another tries to reinvent himself by producing low‑budget porn to regain status and fortune, while a violent figure returns bent on revenge. Their intersecting schemes and betrayals expose darkly comic and brutal truths about addiction, masculinity, social decay, and how the pursuit of quick cash corrodes old loyalties.
