What is a memoir?
A memoir isn’t the same as an autobiography or a biography. It’s a very personal account of one’s life, but only about a narrowly defined subject. In my memoir in verse, I include poems about my heritage research and other areas which tightly relate to that topic: reflections on family, culture, language lost and found, my parents’ history involved in revolution against communism, childhood, unique customs, and a dash of silliness, which every life must have, and every memoir should include. While there is a narrative arc, it isn’t the same as a novel, yet it resolves the quest which is presented at the outset of the work– the search for living relatives.
