I plan to add autobiographical elements to the novel/story. But is it really like this? Is it different?
The writer's "contact" with another writer, his biography is: Stefan Zweig ' S Biography Honoréde from
Balzac
In the author's writing, novels and facts are not only vague; sometimes, there is confusion between the author's biography of the author and the author. from
my own life from
. For example, this Stephen Zweig ' S [ 1881 - 1942] Biography of French writers Honoréde from
Balzac [1799-1850]. This biography [published by Viking Press in 1946], according to some literary criticism, also has Zweig's own autobiographical elements.
However, only readers who are familiar with the lives of these two writers can identify these elements and are happy to see similarities and differences in the lives of the two authors.
The writer's feelings about "affiliation" are related to the notes of another writer. Her biography is as follows: Tatiana de Rosnay's Biography Daphne du Maurier
We can find another case of interest. Tatiana de Rosnay's Biography Daphne du Maurier [1907-1989]. Tatiana de Rosnay [author of "The Key to Sarah", 2008] pointed out that some of the biographies that prompted her to write Daphne du Maurier [titled "Forever Mandeli", 2015] are some of her friendships. . With the famous British writer.
Does this feeling of "being a sense of belonging" make the work more "personalized" to the author, thus becoming a "better" work?
Did it happen or dream?
A good example of the fact that autobiographical elements and novels can be directly mixed Pablo Neruda When he won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1971, he quietly spoke. Neruda [1904-1973], a Chilean poet and politician, recalled that he fled from Chile to Argentina in 1948, when President Gonzalez Vidra announced the illegality of communism in Chile and the arrest of Neruda Order [due to his political ideology]. Neruda fled through the mountain road to Argentina.
In his Nobel Prize speech, Neruda told him how to escape the horseback and the snow, adding that he did not know if the story really happened, whether he was a dream or not. from

. However, he added that this is not important!
Autobiographical elements in spies and other novels
The same applies John Le Carre British writers, such as "spy from the cold" [1963] and other authors of famous books. His later book ["Perfect Spy", 1986] - as the author himself admits - is considered to be his most autobiographical novel, a large part of which is a description of Carrey's early disguise. As an intelligence officer of the British intelligence agency MI6.
Some literary criticism points out that the characters in some books have striking similarities with the life of Le Carre: for example, Magnus Pym is reminiscent of Carre's own experiences in his early years; Magnus' father, Rick Pym, has a striking resemblance to Carré's own father [Johnle Carré's just-released autobiography: "The Pigeon Tunnel: The Story of My Life", Viking, 2016, provides more examples].
But, knowing a book and/or a character based on some of Le Carre's own experiences, does it affect readers? Does it give it more credibility? We can assume that the answer is no; most readers have no idea, there are some autobiographical elements in this book and other books, and still like to read them.
John Chris's autobiography: An example of consciousness creation?
John Chris Autobiography [John Chris: "So, anyway...", 2014] gave us the impression that Chris's autobiography was told to be conscious, authentic and honest.
Chris tells his life in chronological order, just like a person from
Realize that you are from
Who says things are "like them", even if they know that others don't like to hear what he says, they will not hesitate to say their own thoughts, a person who thinks he doesn't need the "fictitious" element in his autobiography. Either to honor your life or to leave us with an unfortunate experience.
In this case, Chris's autobiography differs from other books in that it does not confuse and blur the novel and autobiographical elements, but tells about his life. Therefore, Cleese successfully portrayed himself as "self." Who is he really?" This is not a compliment that all autobiographers can enjoy.
A conscious or unconscious autobiographical element in the creator's art
It's worth noting that not only books, but also many other creative works - these movies, paintings, photos, etc. - are also based, at least in part, on the creator's autobiographical fragments, whether the creators did it or not. from
Conscious or unconscious.
For example, this is the situation of the Spanish director. Pedro Almodovar [born 1949] is considered to be the most important film director after Louis Bunuel, known as the "king of the Spanish melodrama" [now produced 23 movies].
Almodovar never wrote an autobiography and never authorized anyone to write his biography. At the 2016 Cannes Film Festival, as the prime minister of his new film Julieta, he said that those who want to know his life must look at the characters portrayed in his diverse films because they are the characters who form the clues of his life. .

Readers, what is the use of us?
As a reader, when a novel/story/movie is based in part on certain elements of the author's own life and experience, it usually has no effect on us. When a writer writes a biography that includes the author's own autobiographical elements, it has no effect on us.
What matters to us is the question related to the quality of writing; the appeal of this book; sometimes it is related to our own lives.
When we know that it is based on the author's [some] autobiographical elements, do we treat fictional books as "better"? So would we think it is more reliable?
Do we think that the biography is more or less credible because it knows that the author has blurred some of his/her own autobiographical elements?
This is twofold.
After all, a book - whether it's a novel, a biography or an autobiography - has its own merits; its quality; character' development; its scenes, descriptions and dialogues.
Finally, our readers bring us reading - our life experiences, our perceptions, critical eyes and our literary tastes - all of which, consciously and / or unconsciously, determine the impact of a book on us, it The emotions that we produce as we read, and the thoughts that continue to follow us.
