i just cannot read this book


it opens thusly: "The sweat wis lashing oafay Sick Boy; he wis trembling. Ah wis jist sitting thair, focusing oan the telly, tryin no tae notice the cunt. He wis bringing me doon. Ah tried tae keep ma attention oan the Jean-Claude Van Damme video." 

yes, i understand what is being said. actually, that paragraph was not so bad... but i wasn't at all sure what this bit meant: "Aw, ah sais. Ah wanted the radge tae jist fuck off ootay ma visage..."

ok, it's making more sense when i type what i read. but that's not practical, is it? i'm sorry, critically acclaimed book, but you have to go
