Cavanagh Foyle, Oprah, 2019
(July 8) Like The Wisdom of Sundays, this was not a “book,” really... more a series of quotations from people Oprah has interviewed and gained wisdom from. Oprah writes a few essays about self-discovery which are interspersed.You can read it in about an hour.
It is beautifully made, as a book: thick, expensive paper covered with full-bleed, full-colour photographs of amazing scenery on every page. The quotes, or conversations with Oprah, are superimposed over these spectacular views. The package is no doubt meant to be used for contemplation, meditation... all the -ations.
It was fine and pleasant, but I had hoped I would learn something new or have an insight about path-finding... but didn’t.
