Story
Dans la sombre Édimbourg des années 1990, Renton le malin, Sick Boy l'ambitieux, Franco le sociopathe, Spud l'égaré et Tommy l'innocent partagent tout : les petites combines, l'assurance-chômage et la drogue, sous toutes ses formes. Entre deux pintes, après un fix ou une baston, ils racontent la violence d'un quotidien misérable dominé par la rage. Une rage qui les anime tous. La rage de vivre.

Story
In Las Vegas to cover a motorcycle race, Raoul Duke (Thompson) and his attorney Dr. Gonzo (inspired by a friend of Thompson) are quickly diverted to search for the American dream. Their quest is fueled by nearly every drug imaginable and quickly becomes a surreal experience that blurs the line between reality and fantasy. But there is more to this hilarious tale than reckless behavior, for underneath the hallucinogenic facade is a stinging criticism of American greed and consumerism.

Story
Glue is the story of four boys growing up in the Edinburgh schemes, and about the loyalties, the experiences, and the secrets that hold them together into their 30s. Four boys becoming men: Juice Terry, the work-shy fanny-merchant, with corkscrew curls and sticky fingers; Billy the boxer, driven, controlled, playing to his strengths; Carl, the Milky Bar Kid, drifting along to his own soundtrack; and the doomed Gally, who seems to find catastrophe at every corner.

Story
It is the winter of 1985. Hope Farm sticks out of the ragged landscape like a decaying tooth, its weatherboard walls sagging into the undergrowth. Silver's mother, Ishtar, has fallen for the charismatic Miller, and the three of them have moved to the rural hippie commune to make a new start. But here, at just 13, she is thrust into an unrelenting adult world, and the walls begin to come tumbling down, with deadly consequences.

Publisher's Summary
Mark Renton is a very sick young man. He's sick of heroin and sick of trying to get off it but, above all, Renton is thoroughly sick of himself. What with vampire ghost babies, exploding siblings and disatorous sexual encounters, it's pain to see why Renton gloomily contends that 'life does not get any easier'.

Obstacles
The writing is great. Narration is the author's and he gives a potent expressive read. Background sounds and music encroaching on the heavily accented scottish dialect rendered some of it incomprehensible. - really detracts from the experience of the spoken word.
This is the first audible book I have downloaded and I can't believe there is no chapter list, publication details component. Not one I could figure out anyway.
