The most popular French autobiography books

An autobiography is a life told by the person who lived it, from the beginning. You get the whole arc in their own words: childhood, breaks, failures and what it all looked like from the inside. These are the full stories of public figures and remarkable ordinary people. Only books in French are listed.
