These micro-memoirs vary in length from a sentence to a few pages. They include childhood memories, stories of her children, her husband and friends. When described this way, it seems like this is the same as every memoir, but somehow it isn't the same. These short pieces are all part of a puzzle that doesn't really explain who the author is but gives you a hint. With that hint, you get to figure out the answer yourself.
Fennelly is one of those writers who can say a lot with a few words. It is a trait I continue to admire.
Not sure if this is your thing? Never fear, it is short and sweet and I encourage you to take a chance on it.
