What I Know For Sure
Oprah Winfrey's collected O magazine columns, grouped by theme
Fourteen years of a monthly column from O, The Oprah Magazine, collected in 2014 and later reissued with new material. The essays are grouped by theme, among them resilience, clarity, gratitude and awe, and each runs two or three pages. Most take a moment from Winfrey's own life and end on something she is prepared to state flatly. It suits a few pages at a time rather than a straight read through.
