This article discusses Philippe Lejeune's work on autobiography, focusing on his concept of the "autobiographical pact." It explores the complexities and ambiguities inherent in this pact, examining how it functions as a contract between author and reader, establishing the text's claim to truthfulness while acknowledging the subjective nature of memory and self-representation. The article analyzes Lejeune's evolving understanding of the pact, considering its limitations and challenges in light of diverse autobiographical practices. It also delves into the ethical implications of the pact, questioning the responsibility of both the writer and the reader in navigating the blurred boundaries between fact and fiction in autobiographical narratives
