Autobiography is one of the most popular of written forms. From Casanova to Benjamin Franklin to the Kardashians, individuals throughout history have recorded their own lives and experiences. These personal writings are central to the work of literary critics, philosophers, historians, and psychologists, who have found in autobiographies from across the centuries not only an understanding of the ways in which lives have been lived, but the most fundamental accounts of what it means to be a self in the world. In this Very Short Introduction Laura Marcus defines what we mean by "autobiography," and considers its relationship with similar literary forms such as memoirs, journals, letters, diaries, and essays. Analyzing the core themes in autobiographical writing, such as confession, conversion and testimony, romanticism and the journeying self; Marcus discusses the autobiographical consciousness (and the roles played by time, memory and identity), and considers the relationship between psychoanalysis and autobiography. Exploring the themes of self-portraiture and performance, Marcus also discusses the ways in which fiction and autobiography have shaped each other.

Keeps skin moisturized like a lotion
This is quite a lot larger than I thought it would be when I picked it. It's sized like a lotion bottle. My skin can get dry sometimes, especially in the winter so I picked this up to help prevent it from cracking. This is working well so far.
It's unscented which is what I prefer. I'm not fond of scented oils or lotions on my face and hands. This works very well as a lotion. It melts and absorbs into the skin without leaving any extra color or residue. There's a little bit of a oil sheen to it, but it doesn't stand out. It does not have the oil or grease feeling to it which is great.
It's worked really well this winter. My hands and face are moisturized and looking great. I got this in December 2025 and it expires October 2028. I'll probably use it up before it expires.

Amazingly good
This by far, is the very best product and formulation that I've ever used on my face. I have super sensitive skin and have tried three different brands before trying this. The others I've tried, either had a beefy smell after a little while or contained essential oils that irritated my skin. I almost gave up. This was my last try and I'm so glad I gave it a chance. Absolutely no smell and no irritating essential oils or ingredients. It is very soothing and absorbs completely. Thank you Veakoo!! I will definitely keep using this and will be purchasing more. This is a wonderful product and has helped sooo much!

Great product!
Style: Deep Moisturizing, Size: 1.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this stuff! My mom introduced this to me while I was visiting her, and within 3 days of using it I knew I needed to order one for myself. It has no smell, goes on buttery soft, and soaks in well. It is not heavy at all. At night I layer it on thicker and during the day I put a very thin layer on under my makeup. My skin is so much softer and hydrated. I have had small bumps on my cheeks for so long and they were gone within 3 days. My skin looks dewy and soft.
I read reviews of other brands that smelled, were oily, or too heavy. This is none of those things and it is a great price!
