About

Salvation South Deluxe sits down with Beth Ann Fennelly—poet, novelist, and inventor of the “micro‑memoir”—to talk about her latest book, ‘The Irish Goodbye: Micro-Memoirs.’ In a conversation that ranges from Alzheimer’s and caregiving to hyperrealistic nude portraits of folks in Oxford, Mississippi, Fennelly explains why she’s done “Photoshopping” her life and how telling the smallest stories can open us up to all the feels.
