Anna and Oprah--again

Hmmm.

Ms. Winfrey's selection of "Anna Karenina" was notable in several ways, not least because she has not read the book.

Read the article here.

And then there's this, from the Literary Saloon. They quote a rather scary description of Anna Karenina from Oprah's site:

An extremely sexy and engrossing read, this book tells the tale of one of the most enthralling love affairs in the history of literature—it truly was the "Harlequin Romance" of its day.

Please excuse me while I go away and scream at the idea of comparing Anna to a Harlequin Romance.
