Book Synopsis But Enough about Me by : Nancy K. Miller

Download or read book But Enough about Me written by Nancy K. Miller and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the memoirs of contemporaries and pieces of her autobiography, Miller explores the unexpected ways that the stories of other people's lives give meaning to our own. But Enough About Me is a group biography, or even an ethnography, of women, primarily middle-class and urban, now in their fifties and sixties. The book also mounts a defense of the memoir against accusations of terminal narcissism by showing how the forms of life writing--memoirs, diaries, essays--are as much about others as they are about their authors.
