One City by Alexander McCall Smith, Ian Rankin & Irvine Welsh, introduction by JK Rowling

A great little slim volume containing short stories by each of the authors on the subject of social inclusion. McCall Smith's gentle romance is about an Indian man experiencing the culture shock of Edinburgh, Rankin weaves a clever story about a homeless illusionist, and Welsh comes through in his usual unrelenting style with a story about an escaped tiger, hilarious. Can't wait to read the next One City Trust book: Crimespotting
