Wow, just wow! 

As the host of NPR's All Things Considered, Ari Shapiro has introduced his listeners to many incredible stories from people around the world. In this book, he delves deeper into those stories as well as providing a deep dive into his own story. 

This was beautifully written, and, to be expected, he narrates the audiobook himself, which was absolutely perfect. 

If you're not yet a fan of Ari Shapiro after this, you will be (and as a side note, you may also become a fan of Pink Martini!)

I really enjoyed this book, specially the refugee stories. What a life! Make sure to check out the audiobook since Ari is the narrator.
