Oprah picks Poitier memoir for book club surge
Oprah Winfrey ended her book club hiatus by selecting Sidney Poitier The Measure of a Man as the 56th title. The actor spoke of gratitude in a publisher statement as Poitier’s memoir blends childhood, career, faith, racism and leaders like Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi. The selection boosted Poitier’s book on bestseller lists and author HarperSanFrancisco expects strong sales.
