Pan Macmillan has acquired the rights of "The Life You Want", a book that uses Oprah's own story as the source of inspirational advice.
Says Oprah about her book, "All of my experiences, even the painful ones, have been there to teach me something about life. I'm still learning and I hope my story inspires other people to live the highest, fullest expression of themselves."
Robin Harvie, Non Fiction Publisher at Pan Macmillan, bought UK and Commonwealth rights from Jennifer Rudolph Walsh at WME and will publish "The Life You Want" simultaneously with sister company Flatiron Books in the USA and Canada and Pan Macmillan Australia who will publish the book in Australia and New Zealand, while Pan Macmillan India and South Africa will publish in their respective markets.
Bob Miller, president and publisher of Flatiron Books, says "The Life You Want",a remarkable combination of Oprah's life story and the lessons we can all draw from it for our personal growth."
According to Diya Kar Hazra, Publisher, Pan Macmillan India, 'Oprah is an inspiration to millions across the world and here in India. We're thrilled and proud to be publishing her memoir next year. Reading The Life You Want - what makes Oprah Oprah by the woman herself - will be a privilege and a treat.
