Autobiography- Personal Myths

Autobiography, as a prose form of literature, has indeed become a popular genre amongst the common and critical readers for various reasons. The basic purpose of reading any prose form of literature is to view life and aspects of life in the story form. The story elevates the reader's attention towards life and aspects of living. Autobiography satisfies the legitimate curiosity of the reader. The fascination of peeping into the lives of other people is legitimately satisfied by literature in general and autobiography in particular. The private life, along with the person's emotions, conflicts, attitudes and opinions, passions and prejudices, love and wealth issues are normally kept as a secret but the same is openly discussed in an autobiography. The curiosity grows wider and deeper when the subject of an autobiography is from a distinguished and notable background. The personal events, motifs, drives and intentions hidden behind the lives of the autobiographers, become a point of intense interest. Autobiographies offer unparalleled insights into the modes of consciousness of other men and women. In recent times autobiographies have become one of the most popular genres like fiction and imagination of the readers have been undermined by reality, facts and truth. Thus the personal stories have become more interesting, complex and subtle and the reader prefers to read them more than fiction.
