The Biographer's Tale by A. S. Byatt
A disenchanted graduate student abandons a conventional academic path to investigate the lives of obscure biographers, following archival fragments and chance encounters across Europe; his obsessive, detective-like pursuit turns into a meditation on storytelling, memory and the elusiveness of truth, as the project reveals how biography shapes and reshapes lives and the biographer’s own identity.
