Heating and cooling : 52 micro-memoirs

111 pages ; 20 cm.

Includes bibliographical references.

Offering bright glimpses into a richly lived life, combining the compression of poetry with the truth-telling of nonfiction into one heartfelt, celebratory book. Ranging from childhood recollections to quirky cultural observations, these micro-memoirs build on one another to arrive at a portrait of Beth Ann Fennelly as a wife, mother, writer, and deeply original observer of life's challenges and joys. Some pieces are wistful, some wry, and many reveal the humor buried in our everyday interactions. It shapes a life from unexpectedly illuminating moments, and awakens us to these moments as they appear in the margins of our lives. New Jersey born poet and prose writer Beth Ann Fennelly is the Poet Laureate of Mississippi. She was born in New Jersey. She is the author of the poetry collections Open House (2002), Tender Hooks (2004) and Unmentionables (2008). Fennelly and her husband Tom Franklin co-authored a novel, The Tilted World, set during the 1927 flood of the Mississippi River.
