A Woman in Amber (1995), a memory book by the Latvian-American writer Agate Nesaule, makes readers ask questions about the relationship between memoir and fiction, as well as the credibility of a text written from a child narrator’s perspective. Another question addressed in the article is how Nesaule’s narrative perspective differs across languages and cultures, and what is at stake when issues of memory and fiction seem to be at odds with the position of an exile writer and representation of nationalism
