Born in the tough East End of Glasgow and married into one of the citys most notorious criminal families, Janey Godleys young life was far from ordinary. From the grim and farfromswinging 60s, to the discos of the 70s, to the tidal wave of heroin addiction which engulfed Glasgows East End during the 1980s, Janey was witness to an extraordinary underworld as well as religious sectarianism, abject poverty and a frightening family of inlaws. Throughout it all, her indomitable spirit and her vivid sense of humour kept her alive.A vivid, intimate and darkly funny account of a life less ordinary, Handstands in the Dark tells the story of how one girl escaped a chaotic family and became one of the UKs most popular comedic talents.
