Writing a book about one's life can be a finely calibrated balancing act - revealing emotional truths and vulnerability, while telling an interesting, well-written story, all without giving too much of yourself up. In this episode, we explore some of our favourite memoirs and discuss what sets them apart. And then in Footnotes, we talk about a podcast that looks at the life and views of a previously well-loved, now controversial author, JK Rowling.
