Catalan officials on Thursday offered their condolences over the death at the age 85 of Tom Sharpe, the British satirical novelist and author of the Wilt series, who had been living in the region for over 15 years.
The first deputy mayor of Palafrugell, Albert Gómez, held a joint press conference with the writer’s widow, Nancy Sharpe, his doctor, and the director of the Hotel Llevant, where he stayed for four spells before finally purchasing a home in Llafranc.
