The extraordinary memoir of Janey Godley, one of the UK's most popular comedians, telling her story of growing up amidst the violence on Glasgow's tough East End in her inimitable voice.
Janey Godley is an award-winning comedian from Glasgow and something very different on the comedy circuit. She has performed stand-up all over the world and had her first play performed at the Edinburgh Festival in 2003. This is her first book.
An inspirational book
*Daily Mail*
A remarkably engaging and fluently written memoir
*The Observer*
Genuinely compelling and very brave
*Glasgow Herald*
If the school of hard knocks handed out degrees, Janey Godley would
have a PH by now... a harrowing memoir... Godley finds the irony
and absurdity in the most godforsaken situations, yet unlike a lot
of comics she's brave and honest enough to reveal her innermost
emotions, and it's this sincerity that gives her streetwise
revelations such bite
*The Guardian*
Powerful... passionate... poignant... a rising star of stand-up
*The Scotsman*
