SPARE – First details about Prince Harry’s memoir
On January 10th, 2023, Penguin Random House will be releasing Prince Harry’s memoir, “SPARE”, globally.
The book details his life, from his childhood to his time spent in the military, to his life as a member of the Royal Family.
Penguin Random House made the announcement today, along with the release of the book cover image.
The memoir will be available in both digital and physical formats and will be released simultaneously in North America by Random House US and Random House Canada, and in the United Kingdom by Transworld.
A Spanish-language edition of the book will also be published by Plaza & Janés/Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial.
The title likely refers to the phrase “the heir and the spare”. His brother Prince William is set on a clearly laid-out path in life compared to the spare Prince Harry.
Audiobook reading
In addition, an audio edition of the book will be released by Penguin Random House Audio on January 10th, 2023. The audio edition will be read by Prince Harry himself.
The release of “SPARE” has been highly anticipated, as it gives insight into Prince Harry’s life that has previously been hidden from the public eye.
The blurb on the website reads: “It was one of the most searing images of the 20th century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow-and horror.
“As Diana, Princess of Wales, was laid to rest, billions wondered what the princes must be thinking and feeling and how their lives would play out from that point on.
“For Harry, this is that story at last.
“With its raw, unflinching honesty, Spare is a landmark publication full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and hard-won wisdom about the eternal power of love over grief.”
