Million Little Holes

Celebrated memoirist James Frey has had a difficult week. After months on the bestseller lists and in the spotlight as an Oprah Book Club selection, Frey’s 2003 book, Million Little Pieces, has been systematically taken apart
by the investigative Web site The Smoking Gun.

Rumors circulated by Internet news services spread the hoax that his publisher was offering refunds to duped readers and vendors, but a Random House press release merely offers support to Frey’s insistence to the merit of his work.
Oprah continues to publicly support the author and phoned in during Frey’s appearance on CNN’s Larry King Live program.
