À propos de cet audio

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Discover the global phenomenon that tells an unforgettable story of love, loss, courage, and healing.

“Compellingly artful . . . [a] blockbuster memoir.”—The New Yorker (Best Books of the Year)

It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

For Harry, this is that story at last.

Before losing his mother, twelve-year-old Prince Harry was known as the carefree one, the happy-go-lucky Spare to the more serious Heir. Grief changed everything. He struggled at school, struggled with anger, with loneliness—and, because he blamed the press for his mother’s death, he struggled to accept life in the spotlight.

At twenty-one, he joined the British Army. The discipline gave him structure, and two combat tours made him a hero at home. But he soon felt more lost than ever, suffering from post-traumatic stress and prone to crippling panic attacks. Above all, he couldn’t find true love.

Then he met Meghan. The world was swept away by the couple’s cinematic romance and rejoiced in their fairy-tale wedding. But from the beginning, Harry and Meghan were preyed upon by the press, subjected to waves of abuse, racism, and lies. Watching his wife suffer, their safety and mental health at risk, Harry saw no other way to prevent the tragedy of history repeating itself but to flee his mother country. Over the centuries, leaving the Royal Family was an act few had dared. The last to try, in fact, had been his mother. . . .

For the first time, Prince Harry tells his own story, chronicling his journey with raw, unflinching honesty. A landmark publication, Spare is full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and hard-won wisdom about the eternal power of love over grief.

Heartfelt and intimate.

Loved it! I was surprised at how great Harry is at narrating his own story. I also admired how honest and heartfelt the entire story was. Even when the naysayers and paps have their say in the review section, ignore it all and listen/read for yourself!!

Must listen! Harry is stellar and funny at times

Must listen! Amazing to hear Harry speak about his story and the trial and tributes of being royal! Will need to listen again as it was that good!

Prince Harry is my spirit animal

An ex-pat Brit living in Canada for 25 years, there are reasons I left the place I was born and grew up: emotional repression; institutional racism; and misogeny were major factors. I genuinely thought those things were changing in the UK, but it appears not at an institutional level at least.

I started this out of straight-up curiosity and continued because of the honesty, vulnerability, eloquence, humour, insightfulness, compassion, and frankly the intelligence of the voice telling the story. I'm sure Harry Wales had a damn good editor, yet I heard my own experiences echoed at every step. He demonstrates critical thinking skills and vocabulary that are mocked in the British media and sometimes by my own friends and family.

Everyone has their own story, and this one speaks truth to power in a way that clearly upsets the ones with the power. That is commonly what happens with whiatle blowers. I've been that elephant in the room and the voice of someone who simply doesn't care anymore about the class and social contracts that keep the status quo. This absolutely spoke to my own experience: as a feminist, as a queer person, and as someone who, sadly, chose to live in a different culture when the weight of their own became intolerable.

If nothing else, it's simply a fantastic listen, and I loved that it's Harry telling his own story and not flinching away from any aspect. Bravo and thank you.

Listen for yourself, media totally lies.

I figured I would enjoy this but I binged it in 2 days. Well worth the investment

I loved listening to this book and I believe him. Gained a fan despite the tabloids.

So much focus on the salacious in the media, but that’s not what this book is about.

Every time he gets to a part that was leaked and I’m anticipating I might cringe, with something like relatable embarrassment, when said in his own words, those leaked parts sound far less shocking than the media has made them out to sound. And I’m not talking about tabloids, I’m talking about headlines I have seen in passing reading the news. It’s everywhere, of course. But those details are not the important things.
The theme of the book is the loss of his mother and his role as the second son and the enduring effects of each on him. It is truly compassion-inducing and filled me with empathy for him many times. I had no idea of the extent of the power dynamics at play in his family. As an oldest sibling I can all too well understand that strange competitiveness and even insecurity that probably led to a lot of William’s behaviour, and likewise, can only imagine how hard that would be to reconcile in a family without hugs - for each of them. I actually come out of this feeling compassion for almost everyone he writes about, which … makes sense in way.
Because, he sounds kind. He isn’t a snob. He’s an excellent narrator. I imagine all the details the media are fixated on are provided as a way of saying to the reader - here are all my warts, this is it, this is me. It all just seems so very human and for all the privilege he has to apologize for, what sane person would ever want any of it?

Genuine, real, down to earth! Captivating! Couldn’t put it down!

Loved it! Love that Harry shared their experience and raised important awareness about the media! I’m not really a royal watcher but bought it to support their family after hearing briefly about their circumstances. I can only imagine the cost of keeping a family safe, yet being born into a life where you have no choice but to be Royal and in the public eye. To bear the security burdens alone that come with that is astonishing! What a genuine couple!! Truly remarkable hearts with a love for serving others! My kind of people - adding light to the world! The monarchy really did miss out on having such a real, genuine and down to earth couple help change their image in this changing world. Excited for the next book and to hear all the good you are pursuing! Bless your family!

Wow!

I knew it would be an interesting story, but this blew my expectations out of water. Harry was relatable as a human and really was able to explain why things happened the way they did. I had sympathy for him prior to reading this book, but now I see how unbearable his life became. I hope he and his family enjoy their fresh start. This has to be one of the best autobiographies I have ever read.
