Here, I approach Maria’s repeated and varying autobiographical writing with the theory of performativity (identity and differences are performatively constituted in narration) and analyze intersectionality (an approach, which provides a conceptual frame for analyzing different social positions – gender, class, race, sexuality – and particularly the way those differences influence and constitute each other). In the article, I suggest three viewpoints of autobiographical narration which can be captured by reading one writer’s repetitive and varying narration. Firstly, narration is always bound to context. Secondly, the narrating subject is always diversified. And thirdly, reading several varying texts by one writer allows the researcher to perceive expressions of the writer’s agency.
