Autobigographies

So for some reason beyond me, I've decided to read some autobiographies. What are some good ones you can recommend? I'm looking for a really good read, something that I will not want to stop reading. As long as it's not about a minorities struggle in the world...fuck that.

Absolutely this. I can't think of any other good ones, I don't read a lot of autobiographies.

You're looking for an autobiography written by someone who has already been established as a great writer. Good examples: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Literary_autobiographies

I would recommend Speak, Memory by Vladimir Nabokov and Mark Twain's Autobiography.

For some well-written, interesting, and historically significant autobiographies, here are my recommendations: The Confessions of St. Augustine, The Story of My Life by Giacomo Casanova, The Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant, The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Basketball Diaries by Jim Carroll, and Istanbul: Memories of a City by Orhan Pamuk.

Not an autobiography as such, but Down And Out In Paris And London by George Orwell is a good read. Spoiler: the London half is more interesting.

The road to Wigan Peir is better Orwell book. An implied autobiography, he writes about other people giving a more honest portrayal of who he actually is.
