The Song Poet: A Memoir of My Father by Kao Kalia Yang

4.0

I listened to this book read by the author. At first, I struggled with the author’s reading as it seemed a little stilted, but as I got used to her voice, I could really feel the emotions - particularly when she talked about her brother’s struggles with being bullied in high school. The story of her family’s flight from Laos and their difficulties adapting to life in Minnesota are intriguing and informative.
