阅读理解 If you're prone to browse through Twitter, or can't take yet another stressful headline in the news, Oprah Winfrey has some suggestions on what books to read next. Song of Solomon By Toni Morrison American author Toni Morrison was one of Winfrey's longtime friends. Winfrey described Morison as "a magician with language who understood the power of words" after her death in August 2019. The 1977 novel Song of Solomon tells the story of a fictional man from Michigan named Milkman Dead. Between the World and Me By Ta-Nehisi Coates Winfrey called Ta-Nehisi Coates "a bearer of the torch, who carries on the legacy of our ancestors and is also entirely so original." This nonfiction book, Between the World and Me, which won the National Book Award in 2015, is formatted as a letter to Coates' son and grapples with inequality and race in America. The Soul of America By Jon Meacham Winfrey recommends this United States history book, written by Pultizer Prize-winner Jon Meacham, "to guide me and help me understand our current era and reassure that our country can bounce back from dark times." This book is especially prescient in light of the upcoming election. "In moments when public life feels unsatisfactory, then, it's instructive—even necessary—to remember first principles," writes Meacham. The Power of Now By Eckhart Tolle Winfrey said that The Power of Now by spiritual teacher Eckhart Tolle "has changed the way I see life."
