just replace the word with "black" if you're such a delicate, sophisticated older gentleman
it'll be less authentic, but it'll allow people afraid of swear words to enjoy the image too

Filth by Irvine Welsh. It's sleaze core to the bone, funny for the most part and overall an easy reading one.

Oh and the ending caught me by surprise a bit. I was expecting something way more "expected".

>tfw the Polish title literally means "I say fuck in a subtle way"
I get that the title is impossible to translate literally, but this doesn't even make any sense
I guess they really tried to preserve the "fuck" for shock value, since that's probably the main draw of this book
