    Heather Aimee O'Neill, THE IRISH GOODBYE: A Novel
    Nov 7 2025

    In this special episode of the podcast (recorded live at Zibby’s Petite Retreat in Greenwich), Zibby interviews bestselling debut author Heather Aimee O’Neill about her achingly poignant and gripping novel, THE IRISH GOODBYE (which was a Read With Jenna book club pick!). Zibby and Heather discuss the novel’s exploration of sisterhood, grief, and forgiveness as three women return home to confront their brother’s death and the secrets that have haunted them for years. Heather opens up about her family’s connection to 9/11, how that experience shaped her understanding of loss, and the power of compassion and humor in healing.
