Yesterday I picked up two books for £1. One for sending as a ttm, and the other signed -
The Yellow World UK HB 1/1 2012 by Albert Espinosa
Originally published in Europe back in 2008, it was not released in the UK until 2012 by Penguin. Albert is an interesting character.
Albert Espinosa i Puig (born 5 November 1973), educated as an industrial engineer, is a screenwriter, playwright, writer, actor and director of Spanish cinema. He also works as a newspaper columnist at El Periódico de Catalunya. At the age of 14, he was diagnosed with cancer and spent the next ten years in and out of hospitals. He lost a leg, a lung and part of his liver. Espinosa's memoir The Yellow World is an account of his battle with cancer. At the age of 24, he left hospital to train as an industrial engineer at Technical School of Industrial Engineering in Barcelona (ETSEIB), part of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. It was at this time that he began to write screenplays and act in television series for Televisió de Catalunya. The author of several screenplays and novels, he has also written and acted in plays and television series. He is also director, writer and stage actor in his theater company Pelones and a columnist for El Periódico de Catalunya.
Earlier this week I picked up my first find of the year for £2.50. It is a nice companion to my signed Ernest Borgnine book.
Mariage USA HB 1/1 1997 by Tova Borgnine
Tova was married to Ernest from 1973 until his passing in 2012.
