Anyone know who wrote this recent book? I can't do a search on Amazon because it gives me like a ba-zillion hits.

Thanks!

I do believe it was Irvine Welsh. On the cover was a guy sticking his tongue out with a pill on it that had the letter E. I hope I am right.

Oliver,
Are you talking about the book e by Matthew Beaumont?

You can read about Matthew Beaumont <A HREF="http://www.fireandwater.com/Author/detail.asp?aid=3014" TARGET="_blank">here</a>.

Alternatively, if this is the cover, the aptly-named <b>junkie</b> was right i.e. Ecstasy by Irvine Welsh.

I found it....

It was the Matthew Beaumont version.

Thanks!

From the <A HREF="http://www.fireandwater.com/books/default.asp?id=15435" TARGET="_blank">description</a>, if you like that you may also be interested in Geoff Ryman's 253.

You can read 253 <A HREF="http://www.ryman-novel.com/home.htm" TARGET=_blank">online</a> but I bought the softback and enjoyed it muchly.
