Title: I Could Tell You Stories
Description: Memoir, that landscape bordered by memory and imagination, has become the signature genre of our age. In this timely gathering, Patricia Hampl moves back and forth between a series of story-like recollections and essays in which she considers how she has been "enchanted or bedeviled" by autobiographical writing - her own and others'.
Subjects: Autobiography, Biography as a literary form, Autobiographical memory, New York Times reviewed
