Description
The 52 micro-memoirs in genre-defying Heating & Cooling offer 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. Heating & Cooling: 52 Micro-Memoirs shapes a life from unexpectedly illuminating moments, and awakens us to these moments as they appear in the margins of our lives.

Beth Ann Fennelly is a favorite author of mine, and it was nice to see inside her
thoughts and the short length of the stories made this a good read for on-the-go.
Lorna D, Reviewer
Officially my quickest read of the year! The emotion of this one sneaks up on you while you're marvelling at the clear, deceptively simple writing.
Diane P, Educator
I've been reading Fennelly's micro-memoirs in Oxford American, so I was quite eager to read her collection. The collection is so engaging I read it in a one sitting, plus the entries are quite short. Fennelly's talent at writing poetry shines in these brief memoirs.
