Exhilarating, uplifting and often extremely funny...Raw sincerity that gives her streetwise revelations such savage bite -- GuardianI really enjoyed this book. It was interesting, entertaining, horrifying, tragic, and full of hope. Such an insight to life in the Gorbals during this time; the challenges and impossibility of it all. Props to Janey for coming out the other end and doing so well. I throughly enjoy your humor and that of your daughter Janey :) Born in the tough East End of Glasgow and married into one of the city’s most notorious criminal families, Janey Godley’s young life was far from ordinary. From the grim and far-from-swinging 60s, to the discos of the 70s, to the tidal wave of heroin addiction which engulfed Glasgow's East End during the 1980s, Janey was witness to an extraordinary underworld - as well as religious sectarianism, abject poverty and a frightening family of in-laws. Throughout it all, her indomitable spirit – and her vivid sense of humour – kept her alive. In 2009, the New Zealand Comedy Guild nominated Janey as ‘Best International Guest’; they had also nominated her on each of her previous visits in 2002, 2006 and 2008.
