description: Busted Scotch is a selection by James Kelman of 35 short stories--most of them published in this country for the first time--from over two decades of his work. They reveal the author as a tough-minded master of the short form, which he infuses with his unique brand of bleak comedy and his absolute belief in the primacy of his character's language and culture.
