After a long wait, Prince Harry’s book began to be sold around the world this week. This is a memoir named “Spare”. On the British BBC network, it was announced today (Thursday) that the book sold more than 1.4 million copies on its first day of sales – only in the United States, Great Britain and Canada.
In “Penguin Random House”, which is considered the largest publishing house in the world, it was reported that the book broke the record for selling a non-fiction book on its first day. For example, the 38-year-old prince’s book overtook the pace of sales of Barack Obama and his wife Michelle’s memoir, which has held the record since its publication. “The Illuminator of the Duke of Sussex has sold more than 1,430,000 copies. This is the largest sales total for any non-fiction book published by us,” he said in a statement to “People” magazine.
In the memoir written by Harry, he tells, among other things, about his grief over the death of his mother, Princess Diana, about his differences with his brother Prince William. In addition, Harry has a harsh criticism of Britain’s tabloid press and the fact that it is invasive and even publishes false news.
“I was so ashamed after that. I just wanted to right the wrong”
During an interview with the British “Guardian”, Harry talked about missing his family. “I would like to have my father back, I would like to have my brother back.”
During the documentary series, the prince revealed his conversation with the chief rabbi of London that he had when he was 20 years old after causing a stir in the Jewish community in Britain by dressing up as a Nazi soldier at a party. “This is probably one of the biggest mistakes of my life,” said Harry, “I was so ashamed afterwards. I just wanted to right the wrong.” We sat and talked with the chief rabbi of London, it had a profound effect on me.” As a correction to the fact, Harry decided to meet with Holocaust survivors. “I went to Berlin and talked with a Holocaust survivor. I could have ignored it and moved on and probably made the same mistakes again, but I learned from it,” said Harry.
