    About this audiobook

    With its infrastructure broken, the constant threat of starvation and a failed state, Yemen is on the brink of collapse. Less than half of its health facilities are functional amid a health crisis that has seen epidemics of preventable and largely eradicated diseases like cholera. Special correspondent Marcia Biggs reports in partnership with the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting.
