Maxine Hong Kingston examines the great variety of motives and viewpoints which comprise the "true" version of a life. In talking about the sources of her own narratives, she differentiates among fiction, non-fiction, and biography, and notes how a characteristic slant of memory can color a narrator's story and draw forward private over public major events
