Over six years of imprisonment in Australia's offshore migrant
detention centre, the Kurdish-Iranian journalist and writer Behrouz
Boochani bore personal witness to the suffering and degradation
inflicted on him and his fellow refugees, culminating eventually in
his prize-winning book - No Friend but the Mountains. In the
articles, essays, and poems he wrote while detained, he emerged as
both a tenacious campaigner and activist, as well as a deeply
humane voice which reflects the indignity and plight of the many
thousands of detained migrants across the world. In this book
Boochani's collected writings are combined with essays from experts
on migration, refugee rights, politics, and literature. Together,
they provide a moving, creative and challenging account of not only
one writer's harrowing experience and inspiring resilience, but the
wider structures of violence which hold thousands of human beings
in a state of misery in migrant camps throughout Western
nation-states and beyond.
