{"product_id":"book-asmf","title":"Oprah","description":"For the past twenty-five years, no one has been better at revealing  secrets than Oprah Winfrey. On what is arguably the most influ¬ential  show in television history, she has gotten her guests—often the biggest  celebrities in the world—to bare their love lives, explore their painful  pasts, admit their transgressions, reveal their pleasures, and explore  their demons. In turn, Oprah has repeatedly allowed her audience to  share in her own life story, opening up about the sexual abuse in her  past and discussing her romantic relationships, her weight problems, her  spiritual beliefs, her charitable donations, and her strongly held  views on the state of the world.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e After a quarter of a century of the Oprah-ization of America, can there  be any more secrets left to reveal?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Yes. Because Oprah has met her match.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Kitty Kelley has, over the same period of time, fear¬lessly and  relentlessly investigated and written about the world’s most revered  icons: Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Frank Sinatra, Nancy Reagan,  England’s Royal Family, and the Bush dynasty. In her #1 bestselling  biographies, she has exposed truths and exploded myths to uncover the  real human beings that exist behind their manufac¬tured facades.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Turning her reportorial sights on Oprah, Kelley has now given us an  unvarnished look at the stories Oprah’s told and the life she’s led.  Kelley has talked to Oprah’s closest family members and business  associates. She has obtained court records, birth certificates,  financial and tax records, and even copies of Oprah’s legendary (and  punishing) confidentiality agreements. She has probed every aspect of  Oprah Winfrey’s life, and it is as if she’s written the most  extraordinary segment of \u003ci\u003eThe Oprah Winfrey Show\u003c\/i\u003e ever filmed—one  in which Oprah herself is finally and fully revealed.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e There is a case to be made, and it is certainly made in this book, that  Oprah Winfrey is an important, and even great, figure of the twentieth  and twenty-first centuries. But there is also a case to be made that  even greatness needs to be examined and put under a microscope. Fact  must be separated from myth, truth from hype. Kitty Kelley has made that  separation, showing both sides of Oprah as they have never been shown  before. In doing so she has written a psychologically perceptive and  meticulously researched book that will surprise and thrill everyone who  reads it.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49338897563952,"sku":"BDasmf","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/144781-asmf-Square.jpg?v=1734008406","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-asmf","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
