From a desperately poor and troubled childhood in Glasgow’s docklands through work in the shipyards and folk clubs to international success on stage and screen, Connolly’s life is a remarkable mixture of hardship, rebellion, humour and reinvention. Stephenson draws on personal knowledge, psychological insight and detailed research to explore the experiences behind his explosive energy, fierce independence and unmistakable comic voice. The book follows the relationships, risks and contradictions that shaped him, balancing affection with a candid account of pain, anger, fame and family life. Moving and frequently funny, Billy offers readers more than a career history: it is a revealing portrait of the complex man behind the public performer who transformed personal experience into comedy recognised around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Value Junction ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48381733961940,"sku":"TVJ-027542","price":8.05,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/3059\/2980\/files\/TVJ-027542-1.jpeg?v=1785288342","url":"https:\/\/thevaluejunction.co.nz\/products\/billy-by-pamela-stephenson","provider":"The Value Junction ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
