Behind The Scenes of Oprah's July 2017 Cover

Sometimes, the most thrilling experience is a quiet one. Like the chance to lose—and find—yourself in a good book. At this month's cover shoot, that's what happened to Oprah, who was engrossed in Behold the Dreamers. "There are few things I love more than discovering a favorite new writer," she said. "That's the joy I felt when I came upon Imbolo Mbue's debut novel. Exquisite."
