A beautiful story from beginning to end, told in the only way it could be: in the voices of the women who loved it. There are many classics that don’t live up to the weight of their legacy once you finally sit down to read them. Not so with this one. Moving, emotional, funny, hard—all of the things Oprah promises and more.
