A little while ago I read Henry Puyi's autobiography and honestly it was beautiful. So just wanted to ask if anyone here had any recommendations. I'll be reading Lyudmila Pavelochenko's memoirs next but after that I don't know. Back when I was a liberal I wanted to read Ulysses S Grant's memoirs, but idk if I'd enjoy them now, so :p

    He also writes about his childhood and radicalization as a young teen living under Japanese colonial occupation.
