520 "In 2013, Kurdish journalist Behrouz Boochani was
illegally detained on Manus Island, a refugee detention
centre off the coast of Australia. He has been there ever
since. This book is the result. Laboriously tapped out on
a mobile phone and translated from the Farsi. It is a
voice of witness, an act of survival. A lyric first-hand
account. A cry of resistance. A vivid portrait through
five years of incarceration and exile."--|cProvided by
