A Burning: A novel Free Audiobook Download by Megha Majumdar
I, Asher Lev, come from one of the wealthiest families in Israel. I have never faced the harsh reality of poverty, nor have I ever thought about how many children go hungry every day, or what a child without a home might feel like on Christmas Eve. The only thing I know is that if my family had been American and not Israeli, there would be no reason for me to be starving or selling myself for money on the streets. Just because one is born into a wealthy family does not guarantee happiness and success; it guarantees privilege.
