New York.– The most recent book selected for the Oprah Winfrey reading club are the memoirs of an old personal friend and heroin, Tina Knowles, Beyoncé’s mother.
Winfrey announced the “Matriarch” selection of Knowles, published this week. His respective interview, recorded in a Chicago Starbucks, can be seen on Winfrey’s YouTube channel.
Winfrey said: “Some of you could meet Tina Knowles as the mother of a superstar – as Beyoncé – but she is also a highly successful businesswoman, fashion designer, philanthropic and now author of this fascinating book of memories about her trip to become the global figure that is today.” “We learn how the strength and wisdom of the women who preceded her fed the passion of Tina to achieve her goals and gave her the ability to raise their own daughters to become the incredible women who are.”
Winfrey likes to surprise the authors who choose for his reading club when he gives them the news, sometimes even appearing during a zoom conversation. Knowles commented in a statement that they had been told to be called a printing press, when it was actually Winfrey.
“When I heard his voice, I cried!” Knowles said. “I have such a rich story with Oprah. Writing a book about your life is somewhat scary. It’s almost like having a baby. It is so personal and sacred to you that you want people to love it and never say anything bad about it. Obtain the Oprah approval seal, and knowing that he read it and loved it, made everything well. Come on, it’s Oprah!”
