Oprah announced that she will soon be "back in the business of recommending books...but with a difference."
Speaking to members of the Association of American Publishers, Oprah said that the new book club will focus on classic literary works. The new club, tentatively titled "Traveling with the Classics," will likely feature selections three to five times a year, to allow readers to take their time and steep themselves in a particular work or author.
Each show will originate from a site connected with the selection—the author's birthplace, the book's setting or some other relevant locale. Oprah.com will feature comprehensive support, including companion study guides, for readers' keener appreciation.
"I cannot imagine a world where the great works of literature are not read. My hope is The Oprah Winfrey Show will make classic works of literature accessible to every woman and man who reads. ... I hope to invite readers throughout the world to visit or revisit a universe of books of enduring usefulness, because I believe that the sublimity of this experience, this gift to ourselves, is something that we owe to ourselves." — Oprah Winfrey
