Abstract
A human is a narrator by nature. Narration implies not only description, but also interpretation. Deliberately or accidentally, meanings are attached to things, facts, and events that took place in the past. According to Robert Neimeyer, both narrators and audiences do so. The objective of this Article is to clarify how 9 April 1989 and 1991, the war and civil confrontation in Tbilisi, and a stressful series of sudden and intensive changes are analyzed, conceptualized, and interpreted in the memoirs created after Georgia became independent. The 1990s give an impetus to the revival of the past also in texts on life. Lana Gogoberidze's memoirs "What I remember and how I remember" are noteworthy in this regard. The final version of the book was published in 2019. As regards the texts of memoirs, this genre is called lifewriting in scientific literature and this notion is wider than just an (auto) biography. A lifewriting text is supposed to not only tell a story, but also analyze the process(es), which determined the concrete shape of the identity of a person. It analyzes not only how the paradigm or platform, on which the author is based on when writing a text, was created, but also why. "Life is not what you have lived, but what you remember and how you remember". These words by Lana Gogoberidze can be appropriate to be used as a definition of the genre.
