Reviews for Presenting Oprah Winfrey, Her Films, and African American Literature
'This book steps boldly away from the many traditional biographies of Oprah to examine her role as a literary and cultural interpreter, and it would be a valuable addition to any library's collection of critical works on African American literature. Summing Up: Recommended. All readers.' - CHOICE
