Shelf Awareness
Oprah Winfrey's What I Know for Sure will be the first title published by Flatiron Books, Macmillan's new nonfiction imprint, and is scheduled for a September 2 release. The book will feature life lessons shared for 14 years in her monthly O, The Oprah Magazine column of the same title. These essays have been revised, updated and collected for the book, which will be organized by theme (e.g., Joy, Gratitude, Awe, Possibility) to "offer a rare, powerful, and intimate glimpse into Oprah's inner life--her thoughts, struggles, and dreams--while providing readers a guide to becoming their best selves," according to her publisher.---
In other Oprah news, her Harpo Films production company has acquired the rights to Sue Monk Kidd's The Invention of Wings, which is also the most recent Oprah's Book Club 2.0 selection, the Wrap reported.
"In her book, Sue Monk Kidd has given us such a rich narrative, compelling characters, and a rare historical perspective that we know will be the ideal foundation for a wonderful film," Winfrey said.
