I’ve been getting into reading more biographies, and for the most part, it’s been great, but there’s always a lingering thought in my head asking: how much of this is real? I remember large phases of my life, and I get that a biographer would interview people around them/take countless hours trying to remember the past, but how can you remember so many things in such great detail?
Plus, it’s probably expected for biographers to be VERY good interviewers and know the best questions to ask, and know when to direct the conversation in the right direction
