A memoir is a written -- or, in the case of graphic memoirs, written and illustrated -- record of a person's experiences. Often a memoir focuses on a particular event in or aspect of someone's life. While a biography or autobiography typically details a person's entire life, a memoir often has a more limited scope.
Memoirs regularly cover multiple events and experiences. This list attempts to categorize them by one of the book's main themes, but please note that many could be classified under other subjects as well.
