A white male hand holding up a copy of 'The Wasp Factory' by Iain Banks in a messy office.
Forty years late, I've finally read Iain Banks's 'The Wasp factory'—turns out to be as good or better than anything he wrote later. Just wow (but bring your puke bag).

"It was the day my grandmother exploded."
This was a close one with #TheWaspFactory and #EspedairStreet. #TheCrowRoad is a story about family and all the complications that can bring. Oh, and a perfect murder. #Books #BookSky

I read this when I was about 18. If you have not read it - I’d recommend it thoroughly

Found an interview from 1992 with #IainBanks on the release of #TheCrowRoad
The third paragraph says a lot about the #TheWaspFactory without explaining "What happened to Eric".

This #book changed the way I feel about #books - I felt it was terrible, depraved & shocking. It was fantastic 10/10

Read a few more of his later works since - very disconcerting but good, couldn’t get into his #SciFi #novels though
