    We, human beings, always want to prove something. To prove ourselves to people. But this is possible only when we get to eat twice a day. When one is leading a hand to mouth existence, words like responsibility, identity, fame, self-respect, pride, etc. seem only good to read. Every empty stomach keeps saying vehemently that words like these are not at all related to reality. And that is true indeed. Everyone in this world lives to satisfy their hunger; everyone strives to earn a livelihood. Everyone toils so that they get their meals and their family gets fed.
    
    Lata Bhagwan Kare got her three daughters married by saving every penny she had earned – yes, even by remaining hungry. But now, she has another crisis to handle. Her husband's medical expenses.
    
    Listen to the extraordinary story of an ordinary woman, Lata Kare.

    We broke our new series on learning Korean down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
    This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Korean. 
    In Unit 1 you will hear Korean decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
    Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Korean speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
    By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Korean. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Korean at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Korean, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
    In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

    Celia was only fourteen years old when she was acquired by John Newsom, an aging widower and one of the most prosperous and respected citizens of Callaway County, Missouri. The pattern of sexual abuse that would mark their entire relationship began almost immediately. After purchasing Celia in a neighboring county, Newsom raped her on the journey back to his farm. He then established her in a small cabin near his house and visited her regularly. Over the next five years, Celia bore Newsom two children; meanwhile, she became involved with a slave named George and resolved at his insistence to end the relationship with her master. When Newsom refused, Celia one night struck him fatally with a club and disposed of his body in her fireplace. 
     
     
     
    Her act quickly discovered, Celia was brought to trial. She received a surprisingly vigorous defense from her court-appointed attorneys. Nevertheless, the court upheld the tenets of a white social order that wielded almost total control over the lives of slaves. Celia was found guilty and hanged. 
     
     
     
    Melton A. McLaurin uses Celia's story to reveal the tensions that strained the fabric of antebellum southern society. Celia's case demonstrates how one master's abuse of power over a single slave forced whites to make moral decisions about the nature of slavery.
