FAMOUS television personality Oprah Winfrey is back in the book club business, modified for the digital age.

"Oprah's Book Club 2,0," a joint project of Winfrey's OWN network and her "O" magazine, begins today with Cheryl Strayed's popular memoir Wild.

Along with the traditional paper version of the book, special e-editions will be made available that include Winfrey's comments and a reader's guide.

An interview with Strayed will air on July 22 on OWN's Super Soul Sunday and on Oprah Radio.

The new club, announced on Friday, will test whether Winfrey still has clout with readers. She made bestsellers out of countless books through her previous club, featured on her talk show.
