I find good memoirs are few and far between. Many people who write them aren't writers to begin with. Also, people can be self-serving, or way too detailed, especially regarding mundane childhood incidents. The best one I've read is The Liars Club. I read Zen and the Art...many years ago. Long live libraries! We’re both reading and writing memoirs and using the same WordPress theme!
