Oprah Winfrey has chosen Dream State by Eric Puchner (Doubleday) as the latest Oprah's Book Club Pick. Oprah said Dream State is "an exquisite examination of life's most important relationships" and called Puchner a "master storyteller." He was a 2010 Pen/Faulkner Award finalist for his novel Model Home.
According to Oprah's Book Club, "the novel follows a bride-to-be, her fiancé and his best friend through a summer whose events have lasting repercussions for them and their families. With themes of fate, friendship, love, addiction and climate change, Dream State explores living with the mistakes of the past--both our own and those we've inherited."
Oprah interviewed Puchner in the third Oprah's Book Club: Presented by Starbucks video, available here.
