Abstract :Readers may be curious about life stories or seriously interested in the experiences of others or simply seek to know more about the scandalous affairs of celebrities. Whatever their reasons for reading biographies are, stories about one’s life raise questions on the factuality of the text. Biographers may claim that they have represented their subjects faithfully, yet, as Federman puts it, naturally `a great deal of suspicion may arise as to the reliability of its facts` 40 .
