520 |a The hysterical, shocking and incredibly intimate memoir from one of the most original and unique comedians alive today. From growing up in a run-down Glaswegian council estate to finding a certain renown as the writer, director, editor and star of his own multi-award-winning sketch show, nothing about Limmy's life has been conventional. From an early age, he always felt like the odd one out, as if he'd missed a crucial lesson in life that everyone else had attended. And that feeling of oddness has never left him. He's always stumbled down his own, peculiar path. From early run-ins with the police as a teenager, running away from a helicopter, to a drink addiction that saw him nearly piss away his life and career, Limmy has struggled with demons, good and bad, for as long as he can remember. As much as he'd love to kill them off, they are also the fuel for his own, very particular sense of humour which has made him one of the most respected and mercurial comic talents alive today. This is no run-of-the-mill comedian's memoir.
