Oprah Winfrey announced Friday that her latest book selection was Uwem Akpan’s debut short-story collection, “Say You’re One of Them,” practically guaranteeing hundreds of thousands of sales.
In making her 63rd book selection on “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” she said, “each one of these five stories really just left me gasping. Just an incredible book.” Akpan, 38, is a native of Nigeria and an ordained Jesuit priest. His work is set in African countries and often centers on children in distress.
