Perhaps no guest has infatuated Oprah as much as Toni Morrison. We break down Morrison’s appearances on the show, her place in the Oprah Book Club, and how Oprah served as a bridge between Morrison’s work and wider audiences for decades and decades.
Special Guest: Dennis Tyler of Fordham University, who teaches a course on Oprah’s Book Club!
