"Memoir" refers to a written account of one's own life experiences, focusing on specific moments, themes, or periods. Unlike an autobiography, which typically covers an entire life story, a memoir often zooms in on certain events or aspects of the author's life, offering insights, reflections, and personal perspectives. Memoirs can vary widely in style and content, ranging from deeply personal narratives to historical or cultural observations.
