Jackie Bailey is a writer who holds a PhD in creative writing from the University of NSW and whose work has appeared in a variety of publications including The Sydney Morning Herald, ScreenHub, ArtsHub and the Australian Journal of Human Rights.
Jackie's debut novel 'The Eulogy' was published by Hardy Grant earlier this year.
A work of auto-fiction (drawing heavily on Jackie's own life and experiences), 'The Eulogy' was a moving and memorable book about death, grief and the effects of intergenerational trauma.
I was honoured to have the chance to speak with Jackie about this exceptional book earlier this year.
