JR Moehringer, the ghostwriter of Prince Harry’s autobiography, epicly opens up about the stress of writing the Prince memoir in an op-ed for The New Yorker. Do even the most discreet professions now stop being discreet?
“Ghosts don’t speak,” but sometimes they do. J .R. moehringer The ghostwriter of Prince Harry’s autobiography “Reserve” gives epic information about his actions in the current issue of the “New Yorker” magazine.
This is a coup for the magazine. Systemically it is at the limit. Do even the most discreet professions now stop being discreet? Does everyone have to go public with every activity? Does a ghostwriter still write his memoirs about how he fabricated other people’s memoirs? If only they were memoirs!
The text with 48 minutes of reading or listening time is a rather self-satisfied making-of protocol, which extends the logic of the Prince Harry soap according to all the rules of the mockumentary by revealing details: “Ghostwriter unpacks about Zoff with princes”, “Night argument about this passage” – so and similar are the headlines that are now spreading – in relation to the “New Yorker”, when and why Prince Harry liked what sentence in it – and why he didn’t get in in the end. Just imagine: In a book, there is a struggle for the right expression and narrative! there are things.

The revealing passages in the “Notes of Prince Harry’s Ghostwriter” are then those in which JR Moehringer complains about the consequences of his own prominence – modest in comparison to Prince Harry, of course immense in comparison to the run-of-the-mill ghostwriter scene. Ever since it became known that he, the Pulitzer Prize winner who had already written Andre Agassi’s memoirs, in charge there was all sorts of misinformation circulating about him, Moehringer. “My fee was wrong, my resume was wrong, even my name,” writes Moehringer – and one is inclined to say to him: Cry it! Prince Harry, on the other hand, reacted professionally: “Welcome to my world”.
