Reviewing Homes: A Refugee Story By Abu Bakr Al-Rabeeah and Winnie Yeung

  • Resumen

  • Homes: A Refugee Story, by Abu Bakr Al-Rabeeah and Winnie Yeung, was recommended to us by our audiobook curator, Aamer Khan, as part of a previous episode where we discussed books that can make us shed a tear... or three. Ramya and I read it and we've reconvened with Aamer to record a proper in-depth review. It's a great, accessibly written, true story about a tight-knit family as they try to find a place to call home. Originally from Iraq, they move to Syria, only to be caught up in the civil war. While they eventually make their way to Edmonton, the time they spend in Syria, anxiously toiling through the refugee process will mark them forever. This book does a lot to humanize the countless refugees around the world, who are too often reduced to simple statistics. Here it is on Audible. Note that it's also available on CELA: https://www.audible.ca/pd/Homes-Audiobook/B07QHG7N5V Plus, Jeff Ryman joins us in the second half for his turn at rapid-fire review. Here are Jeff's selections: - Burke’s Law: A Life in Hockey, by Brian Burke - Colin Kaepernick: Change the Game, by Colin Kaepernick - Runnin' with the Devil: A Backstage Pass to the Wild Times, Loud Rock, and the Down and Dirty Truth Behind the Making of Van Halen, by Noel Monk - I Am Ozzy, by Ozzy Osbourne - The Dirt: Confessions of the World's Most Notorious Rock Band , by Mick Mars, Tommy Lee, Vince Neil, Nikki Sixx, Neil Strauss
