Besides working on her newsmaking interview with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, Oprah Winfrey has been busy with the novels of Marilynne Robinson. Winfrey announced on Tuesday that she has selected Robinson’s acclaimed quartet of Gilead narratives for her next book club selection. “As I was recently reading author Marilynne Robinson’s latest novel, Jack, I thought it would be wonderful to explore her entire Gilead universe through these four novels. Robinson, whose other admirers include Winfrey’s friend former President Barack Obama, said in a statement that “Oprah Winfrey is a singular voice in this country and in the world. Apple customers wishing to learn more about why Winfrey chose Robinson’s books can now do so by asking Siri “What’s Oprah reading?” and hearing a recording of Winfrey.
