If They Come for Us

Poems

By: Fatimah Asghar
Narrated by: Fatimah Asghar
Length: 1 hour 22 minutes

“Raw, but not unpolished. Dripping with sadness and honey. Rage beyond anger, a lesson in history and violence. A comprehensible example of otherness in America for those who haven’t experienced it; for those who don’t know they’re perpetuating it. An honest portrayal of a life shaped by governments’ omissions, of the lies of the self and others,...

Anna K

A Love Story

Anna K: Book #1

By: Jenny Lee
Narrated by: Jenna Ushkowitz
Length: 13 hours 39 minutes

“I am not a purest when it comes to the Classics. I love a good retelling. I have always been an Anna Karenina fan - the 1877 Tolstory novel and the 2012 film. Anna K just works; it doesn't seem forced. Listening to it, I got these major Gossip Girl vibes with a sprinkle of Crazy Rich Asians, so please do not expect a lesson in morality. If you...
