Oprah Winfrey has a new book scandal on her hands. A "memoir," praised in her O Magazine as "startlingly tender," has been revealed as a complete work of fiction.
"Love and Consequences," written by Margaret B. Jones, a self-described half white, half Native American foster child and former drug runner, has been revealed as a fake. The fictional story was actually penned by Margaret Seltzer, a white, private-school educated writer.
Riverhead Books, which published the work, began recalling the book earlier this week.
"Love and Consequences" didn't go as far as "A Million Little Pieces," a "memoir" by James Frey, which was later revealed as full of exaggerations and falsities. His book was recommended on national television for Oprah's Book Club. |
