Ruminations of a meandering mind

If someone thought that penning an autobiography is facile, then you gotta be kidding. You need to have a great memory for sure to diligently chronicle the highlights of your life and then write it down with a flair that would make the readers appreciate and seek inspiration from your achievements.

I haven't read many autobiographies but the one I do remember having enjoyed was the one written by Agatha Christie. She did live a very eventful life and although she conveniently omits a very embarrassing incident in her life attributing it to her bouts of amnesia, the book is definitely worth a read. She writes at length about her childhood, her knowledge of medicines (because of her stint as a nurse during the world war) and her fascination for books and archeology. She also speaks about her characters like Poirot, Marple, Tommy and Tuppence.
The one flaw in the book is it's bad editing since the periods and incidents appear disconnected probably because she wrote the book over a period of many years.

So ppl who are reading this, let me know of other autobiographies worth reading, coz i would be interested in giving it a shot.
