Things Unspoken is a memoir gossip about the media mogul. When Oprah was made aware that the book is being peddled to agents, she was shocked and disappointed. What should Oprah do? Buy the book and never publish it? Or just fill him with money? Which one should be the answer. The book is set to reveal some painful moments in the superstar's life. Most of them were already made public by herself on the show. But the father feels there are some other episodes that would rivet the public.

"Our daughter was out of hand, an unruly child," Vernon quotes Oprah's mother, Vernita, as saying, "She said she stayed out all times of the night and lied regarding her whereabouts, said she made herself known to boys," he writes.

That interesting euphemism is just the beginning.

"She had secrets," writes Oprah's father. "Dark secrets," he continues. "Some I didn't discover till she was a grown woman, till it was too late."

The New York Daily News gave a heads up to Oprah who was not too happy about her father's dealings. "The memoir gossips about Oprah as a child, when she was living in Milwaukee with her mother and visiting her estranged father in Nashville, Tenn."

Is this a way to cash in?
